Where is the Recipe History stored?

The speed issue is really a problem, and i would like to programmatically clear the history whenever the package loads. All I need to know is where this information is stored. Cant seem to find it anywhere in the filesystem or registry.

thanks

Hi smartindale,

Recipe execution history is stored in your solution's .SUO file. In combinations where you have lots of history and long running GAT references, deleting this file helps avoiding the speed issue.

Mmm... how are you relating an entry in the history with the possibility or not of undoing actions? The reason for history entries was to have an idea of what executed and to have the chance to re-execute (through "Run this recipe again") link where possible.

If you could clarifiy your point I would be more than happy to bring it to the dev table for GAT.

thanks,

thanks much for the answer, Victor! hopefully this will help alleviate the issue.

Incidentally, do you know if the GAT team is planning to make it optional to make entries in the history list? I know that i have some things that it really doesnt make sense to put an entry into the history for, as undoing the action cant really be done or shouldnt be done due to the nature of the recipe, and it would be nice to not waste entries in the history list for these..

thanks
