I want to keep the all the file structure of extension when we uninstall any extension from the site.
In the uninstall process I want to remove DB tables only and want to keep all Files/Folders.
Can you please guide me if there is any solution.
Thanks
The manifest file for the extension includes a list of the relevant files that are installed for the extension. These can be copied from the website and zipped to recreate the install file for the extension.
Some extensions may also create associated data which you can back up by exporting relevant database tables and/or files (e.g. in the media or images folders).
A normal uninstall process (via Joomla! manage form) removes everything unless the extension has bug in its uninstall schedule. So, if you need to keep the files, uninstalling the extension won't be a good idea. I suggest you drop tables via phpMyAdmin instead.
To do that, go to your web hosting control panel (cPanel, DirectAdmin etc.) and look for the link to phpMyAdmin. Then select the database that contains your website data (if you got multiple databases and are not sure which one is the right one, you can check it via Joomla! admin > Global Configuration). When you found the database in phpMyAdmin, click on its name to go to its tables. Then select the table(s) of that specific extension by checking the checkbox(es) beside them. Then at the bottom of the all tables click "Drop". In the popup window click "OK" and the table(s) will be removed without effecting your folders/files.
I suggest you get a backup of your whole website first, if you're new to phpMyAdmin.
Be careful!

I can get#recommended:workspace extensions to work correctly but I am unsure as to why I cannot get the general #recommended to show anything. Where am I supposed to put the extensions.json file?
My goal here is to have PowerShell install VSCode, copy over some JSON files for specific settings and then have the user shown the companies recommended extensions to install once they open up VSCode.
I know I can force them installed with code --install-extensions but I want the user to be able to pick and choose from the companies recommended list based on what kind of files they'll be working on. What I can't seem to figure out is how to get that list to show except within a workspace.
For example, we have a Chef team, an Azure team, Linux team, etc. each needing different extensions.
The #recommended option has no config. VS Code decides which extension to recommend based on the file types that exists in the folder/workspace that you opened (official release info).
So, in your scenario, I guess the best option is to use Workspace Recommendations (#recommended:workspace), using a different recommendation for each team/project.
My media file contains three folders, of which, I want to have only one of those to be installed on user’s machine based on his selection.
One quick and dirty fix for this is to install all the three folders onto the user machine and then delete two of the unwanted ones. This is additional work and users might not like this. Is there a better way?
That's what installation components are for. You can select them programmatically like this:
context.getInstallationComponentById("123").setSelected(true)
You can configure installation components on the Files->Installation components step.
right now we are using svn to share code for our force.com/visualforce project. It works great controllers, components, pages and static resources.
The problem is it seems the salesforce.schema file is not really a local file, its a placeholder that checks your server and tells you your current schema.
We want to baseline our schema changes/updates to a file so we can share in svn.
I found this:
http://boards.developerforce.com/t5/General-Development/Custom-Objects-in-Force-com-IDE/td-p/445363
But we cant seem to figure out what do do/how to get it to work.
So in a nutshell, we are looking for a way for Developer A to create a custom schema object in their own SF Sandbox, somehow get this info into a file in svn (ideally through the force.com ide), then check it in so developer B can check it out and apply it to their server. (the same way we do for code).
Any help would be great!
thanks

Ok, we finally figured this out through trial and error:
To make this work:
right click on project, click "Force.com/Add Remove Metadata Components"
go down to custom ojbjects, open that up, make sure all your custom objects are checked, click apply, then say "NO" to dialog
then right click on src and click "Force.com/Syncronize with Server, find your objects, and click "Apply Server to Project"
now your files will be local, check them into SVN and you are golden.
I m new to use ankhSVN and having issues. I have created some new files which are not commited. It was required that i need to get latest version. I right clicked the folder and selected update. I didnt get the latest version and also my files were not present. It had a question mark icon towards the left.
Ideally i want to know what is the procedure to use ankhSVN.
Thanks and regards,

The 'folders' you see in Visual Studio are not normal folders/directories. They are just filters on your project. For some project types they map to actual folders (E.g. C#, VB and websites), but for other projects they don't (E.g. C, C++, Setup, Database, ...).
So actually you are just updating the selection of the filter/folder and everything below.
For most tasks you should always update on either the solution, the project level or a single file, as updating a subdirectory without the project referencing the files inside is an operation that can leave you with a broken project. (New files won't be included in your project and old files won't be removed).
AnkhSVN allows you to update the whole directory at once by checking the [X] Recursive checkbox at the bottom of the dialog, but this is currently not the default setting.
I'd sooner not just permanently have a bunch of files checked out to me, but I'd like a way to prevent some really critical files being changed without my being aware of it.
PS Yes I know SourceSafe is terrible.
You can only set access rights on a project by project basis.
This is done by running the the Source Safe Administration application and then go to Tools > Rights By Project. Select the required project and then give a users the required priveledges.
In order to protect a subset of files place them in a seperate project and hence protect the subset.
When you go into Source Safe if you set the working folder of the sub folder to be the same as the parent then when you do a get latest etc. all the files will be in the same folder. If you want the protected files to be in a seperate folder then set the working folder accordingly.
It's been a while since I've had to use Source Safe but I don't think it has this kind of functionality built it.
Can you set up a separate repository/instance that excludes the users who shouldn't be allowed to modify them?
Or failing that, just keep the files always checked out on your machine :P
