5.4.2 Archive Types
This software supports three types of report archives: File system-based archive, CVS-based archive, and user-defined archive.
• File System: The 'File System' option saves and manages archived reports on the server file system. This type of archive only allows one version per report. The report files are managed internally by the report archive. Therefore, the archive does not depend on any external software. See File System Archive for more information.
• Version (CVS): The 'Version (CVS)' option selects a versioned archive based on CVS. All reports are saved and managed through a CVS system. Each report can be saved in multiple versions. In order for the archive to work, the 'CVS Bin' field must specify an absolute path to the CVS executable file (cvs.exe). See CVS Archive for more information.
• User Defined: The 'User Defined' option may be used as an alternative to the default archives. A common user-defined archive would, for instance, save the archived report into a user database. The user-defined archive class needs to implement the ReportArchive or VersionedArchive interface. See User-Defined Archive for more information.
