How to merge from trunk to branch ignoring all private changes - svn-merge

Trunk svn url: http://svn.myserver.com/trunk/project1
Private branch created from above branch: http://svn.myserver.com/trunk/project1_myprivate
Now after some merging from trunk to private and private to trunk, finally I want to merge from trunk to myprivate branch but this time want to accept all changes of trunk and ignoring myprivate, what commands I need to acheive this?

You should use svn revert at first.

Git Remote Updates finder in Java

I have a requirement to find if there are any updates in Git Remote branch compared to the local branch cloned earlier. If there are any updates available, application must notify the user and on user consent, a pull request has to be performed in Java.
I tried using JGIT
org.eclipse.jgit.lib.BranchTrackingStatus.of(git.getRepository(), git.branchList().call().get(0).getName()).getBehindCount() to know if my local repository is behind the remote repository. This is always returning 0.
1st parameter to the function BranchTrackingStatus.of must be a Repository object, and the object passed is local repository object.
Appreciate any suggestions to tackle this scenario.
BranchTrackingStatus compares a local branch with the configured remote tracking branch, e.g. refs/heads/foo with refs/remotes/origin/foo (if the default naming convention is followed).
The method does not update the remote tracking branch. Unless you first fetch the branch in question from the remote repository, no change will be reported.
FetchResult result = git.fetch()
.setRemote("origin")
.setRefSpecs("refs/heads/foo:refs/remotes/origin/foo")
.call().
The result holds details of the succeeded operation or why it couldn't be completed.
Does that solve your problem?

Crda contracts and states upgrades questions

I am going through this documentation and I have several uncertainties.
Performing explicit contract and state upgrades
Preserve the existing state and contract definitions
Write the new state and contract definitions
Create the new CorDapp JAR
Distribute the new CorDapp JAR
Stop the nodes
Re-run the network bootstrapper (only if you want to whitelist the
new contract)
Restart the nodes
Authorise the upgrade
Perform the upgrade
Migrate the new upgraded state to the Signature Constraint from the
zone constraint
Questions:
1. Preserve the existing state and contract definitions
2. Write the new state and contract definitions
3. Create the new CorDapp JAR
How do I do that? is it meant only to preserve jars with contracts and states on nodes, not preserving them in source code? If I do not preserve them in source code then how can I create the upgrade method?
interface UpgradedContract<in OldState : ContractState, out NewState : ContractState> : Contract {
val legacyContract: ContractClassName
fun upgrade(state: OldState): NewState
}
If I do not preserve old state in source code, then shoud I name the jar differently each time I need to do an upgrade?
Can old jars be reoved from the node when the upgrade was completed?
6. Re-run the network bootstrapper (only if you want to whitelist the
new contract)
8. Authorise the upgrade
Am I right that only those 2 steps are related to Explicit contact upgrades? And If I use implicit flow with signature, then I need to skip only those two steps, while the others are still aplicable and must be performed?
9. Perform the upgrade
Should this be done for each state separately by the owner of the state? In that case should I run it on each node for specific contrcats where the node is the participant of the state? (In doc it is mentioned to be run on single node - but what id=f a single node is not participant of some state)
Other questions
This section describes explicit contracts and states update.
https://docs.corda.net/upgrading-cordapps.html#performing-explicit-contract-and-state-upgrades while signature constraint section (https://docs.corda.net/api-contract-constraints.html#signature-constraints) does not describe an update process for states.
is it the same as for explicit upgrades with the difference only in steps 6,8 or it is somewhat completely different?
Do I need to create the function transforming old states to new states in that case? if not , then how the old states will be handled by new flows?
I see you have many some great questions about contract upgrades. Here is an article that is written by one of our dev-relation engineers. https://medium.com/corda/contract-upgrades-and-constraints-in-corda-425055a9a47f

While performing legacy contract upgrades, you need both the old and new contract jars installed on your node. (present in the cordapps folder).
You can create a new Gradle module say v2-contract and write the new contract in this. This is where you will write your UpgradedContract. You will need to refer to the old v1-conract jar as well as it needs to know what the old state was. To do this add a gradle dependency in v2-contract like below.
dependencies {
// Corda dependencies.
cordapp project(v1_contract)
}
The old jar can be removed from the cordapps folder, once all the states have been upgraded to new v2-contract.
a. For HashConstraints there is no need to run the bootstrapper again. You will write the new contract by implementing UpgradedContractWithLegacyConstraint,run the jar task to build this new jar, add it to the cordapps folder, run the Authorise Flow from all nodes, run the Initiate flow from one of he node's terminal. This is the explicit way of upgrading.
b. However if you are using Whitelistzoneconstraint, you want to make sure to add the new v2-contract jar's hash to whitelist param in network param. You will need to run the network Bootstrapper to whitelist this new v2-contracts jar hash. https://docs.corda.net/network-bootstrapper.html#whitelisting-contracts.
Once you do that you can either go for an explicit upgrade by implementing UpgradedContract, or you can use implicit upgrade.
c. If you are using Signature Constraints, no need to run the network Bootstrapper for the new jar, write the new v2-contract, build it using gradle jar task, replace old jar with new jar. This is the implicit way of upgrading.
You should run the Authorise Flow for all the participants only.
Other questions
There is no explicit upgrade in Signature constraints. You need to make sure you write your state in a backward compatible way, build new jar, replace old jar with new jar. The states will refer to the new contract then.
Hope that helps. Feel free to post more questions on the above answer or ping on Slack.

Can I create Corda Custom Data Tables?

Reference code :-
GIT clone url :- git clone https://github.com/corda/cordapp-tutorial
Release M14 :- git checkout -b release-M14.0
I am little bit confused about how the data flows in Corda. I have some database releated queries:
Whether the database structure is fixed or we can add our custom tables in it?
Where can I see the data flowing in tables, when I do a cash transaction which I can see in VAULT_CASH_BALANCES
table in my H2 database client but apart from cash I am unable to see any details of my other transactiosn i.e. if I
save a string then I am unable to get the information, I only get the transaction Id for that.
Is it possible to get entire data flow diagram?
Do the Node and Vault tables created every time when I build a code?
You can define how each state type is stored in the node by implementing the QueryableState interface. Each state type that implements QueryableState will have its own custom database table.
See https://github.com/corda/cordapp-tutorial/blob/master/kotlin-source/src/main/kotlin/com/example/state/IOUState.kt for an example. Since the IOU state implements a schema (in the Kotlin version of the CorDapp), you can see the sender, recipient and value from the H2 interface for each IOU state.
In the current implementation, the node's data is stored in the persistence.mv.db file of the deployed node. This will be wiped whenever you run gradlew deployNodes. However, if you simply create an updated CorDapp jar by running gradlew jar, you can then copy the updated CorDapp jar from build/libs into each node's plugins folder, and the node will use the new plugin.

Can you FTP into an EC2 instance if you opted out of creating a key pair when you generated it?

I followed this AWS tutorial to get a Wordpress site up and running but it instructed me not to use the keypair option so now I can not follow those instructions to FTP and make simple CSS etc. changes.
Before I blow up the whole instance, am I missing an approach that can make FTP possible?
If you skipped creating key pair during instance launch, you can't connect to it. The only way to connect to that instance with (S)FTP now is to put a working key on the disk:
Stop the instance.
Detach the EBS volume and attach it to the instance that you can connect to.
Mount the volume and put a public key in ./ssh folder in the home directory of the user named bitnami.
Dismount the volume, detach it and attach back to the original instance.
Seem like it's easier to just recreate the instance, this time with a private key.
