FTP / SFTP Connections

FTP / SFTP Connections

　Finally there is one other major tool that can be used in the development of systems by remotely situated programmers.

　The feature of coding through an FTP connection can certainly be used to answer the key issue that was posed at the beginning of this second scenario.

　You can start an FTP type of project from within Zend Studio for Eclipse and have the IDE connect directly and continuously to that server while your programmers are coding against the project files.

　This is another method that can be used to keep your projects in one location no matter what the time zone and it also keeps them in one presumably safe and secure location.

　When all the above aspects of Zend Studio for Eclipse are used in concert, they will certainly help the coordination of the development process to run smoothly.

　It is assumed however, that your developers will all be using these tools and helps, and will be consistent in their application.

　Therefore it is certainly important to have your entire development team all in agreement with the use of not only the Zend Studio for Eclipse IDE, but also the consistent use of the tools and features that are available.

Summary

　Naturally the full implementation of SCM software will be the biggest piece of any multi-developer team and it will be up to each development shop to determine which tool to use and how it should be implemented.

　There is a lot of research available on the web about both of the SCM tools that Zend Studio for Eclipse is compatible with, so be sure to select the one that best suits your shop.

　Keep in mind that the larger the project that your development team deals with the more integration with tools is desired.

　With Zend Studio for Eclipse having so many of these team development features all in one IDE solution, it makes sense to take a good hard look at implementing this product throughout your enterprise.
