Looking for feedback using SIGRID CI with SAS

Hi,

I am looking for some feedback about using SIGRID CI (https://www.softwareimprovementgroup.com/solutions/sigrid-software-assurance-platform/) for performing quality assurance checks on SAS code.

What do you think about the tool ?

Does it suit to SAS development, especially in Data Warehousing ?

Pros-cons ?

Thanks beforehand.

Re: Git checkout onto a branch from origin does not work.

well, I found a workaround but do not find it a suitable solution at long term.

Once I've cloned the repository, I am copying the ref from remotes/origin to heads within the local git metadata:

filename frefin  "&path.\.git\refs\remotes\origin\&targetBranch";
filename frefout "&path.\.git\refs\heads\&targetBranch";

data _null_ ;
     rc = fcopy('frefin', 'frefout');
     msg = sysmsg();
     put rc= msg=;
run;

and then successfully checking out the &targetBranch.:

data _null_;
     rc = git_branch_chkout("&path.", "&targetBranch.");
     put rc = ;
run;

Hi Alex,

I am currently facing exactly the same issue.

As you posted quite a long time ago and there seems to have been no answer, I am wondering whether you solve it ?

Re: Dynamic list prompts - not populated

Hi, I recently had an issue with a dynamic list prompt that looks similar to yours. Prompt values were correctly displayed when testing it via the Stored Process Properties window... but no values were displayed for the prompt when calling the Stored Process from Excel. The only thing I pointed out was that the name of the Physical Table used as Data source for the prompt wasn't the same as the name of its definition in the metadata (which normally shouldn't be a problem). I did update the properties to have the same name at all levels and it worked!

Hope it may help you.
