Synchronization Tool

The Synchronization Tool is a plug-in for OBO-Edit which aids in keeping the Teleost Anatomy Ontology and the Zebrafish Anatomy Ontology consistent with each other.

System Requirements

The Synchronization Tool runs as a plug-in within OBO-Edit 2. The plug-in will not work with earlier versions of OBO-Edit. Download OBO-Edit for your system from its website.

Download & Installation

The latest version of the Synchronization Tool plug-in can be obtained from the Phenoscape Sourceforge project site. The plug-in is packaged as a single "jar" file which works on all systems running OBO-Edit 2.

• Synchronization Tool downloads

Installation

If you have not yet installed OBO-Edit, do so. Move the downloaded Synchronization Tool jar file into the "extensions" folder within your OBO-Edit folder, then relaunch OBO-Edit. You should now see "Synchronization Tool" within the "Tools" menu.

Obtaining Synchronization Tool source code (for developers)

To make contributions to the project or test the latest in-development code, you should check out a working copy from the Subversion repository:

• https://phenoscape.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/phenoscape/trunk/src/SynchronizationTool (use that URL with an SVN client, not a web browser)

The Synchronization Tool source includes both an Eclipse project (used for most active development) and an Ant build file (used for making releases). You can browse Synchronization Tool SVN revisions on the web at http://phenoscape.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/phenoscape/trunk/src/SynchronizationTool/.

Reporting Bugs and Feature Requests

Report any bugs and make feature requests using the Synchronization Tool issue tracker. You will need to log in with a Sourceforge account to submit an issue (just create an account if you don't already have one). Be sure to choose a group for your new issue, either Bug Report or Feature Request.
