  • Combine DVCS with Visual Source Safe

    - by WBlasko
    I'm forced to use Visual Source Safe 2005 at work. I'd like to combine that with a DVCS, so that I can check in files locally without disrupting my co-workers if there's a bug or it doesn't compile. In my attempts with Mercurial, it works, but causes a few weird issues. Namely, it thinks someone else has checked out the files I have checked out. Here's my thoughts on how I should manage it: Disable auto-checkout. Work locally in Mercurial When I'm ready to push my changes... Clone my Mercurial repository. Update my Visual Source Safe repository Pull and merge the two repositories using Mercurial. Check everything into Visual Source Safe. Does this sound reasonable? I'm always hearing bad things about VSS, is this just asking for me to see those problems firsthand?

  • What's the diff between VSS 6.0 and VSS 2005?

    - by Peter Turner
    We've been using VSS 6.0 since time began, but yesterday I nabbed VSS2005 off of our MSDN subscription, it wouldn't let me install it off the ISO through Daemon Tools (not sure why, but I submitted error report to MS...). I noticed it had a program files directory right on the ISO, so I just copied the folder onto my hard drive. Well, I opened up the client and behold, a glamorous version of VSS 6.0 connected to the exact same DB. Anyone know if I'm going to destroy everything by using it?

  • Is it possible to control the destination folder when checking out a project from VSS 2005?

    - by swolff1978
    We are currently using VSS 2005 for source control - and please let me start by saying, I've read a lot of posts on Stackoverflow and I realize VSS is the devil. That being said... its what we have to work with now and I have a question about the checkout process. We have the code organized in a certain hierarchy on the vss server, but when we do a checkout we don't need that same hierarchy on our machines. Is there a way to control how visual studio 2008 and vss 2005 create the checkout destination folder so that I don't end up with the code being 9 folders deep on MY machine?

  • How to safely use VSS when using a working directory on a thumb drive?

    - by MatthewMartin
    I know putting code into VSS in general is as safe as putting money into a mutual fund run by Bernard Madoff, but I don't have the luxury of ditching it for subversion. That said, I need to be able to write code on two machines, I'm considering checking out code to a flash thumb drive. Anyone know in advance what I should/shouldn't do to avoid loss of work? Do I need to ensure the drive letter stays the same?

  • Where does one get Visual Source Safe 2005?

    - by strongopinions
    I would like to install VSS 2005 so I can work on a project that is stored under it. Does anyone have any idea where the VSS 2005 client can be obtained? It does not appear to be on my VS2005 install disc (although that is for Team Suite). I cannot get any help from Google. I have an MSDN license (AA edition) but it doesn't seem to be there. This is a real product right? Just to clarify preemptively based on some of the discussions I see on Google when I search for things like "VSS 2005," I am aware of the flaws in VSS and I still need to get it working; I am not interested in converting the project to Subversion; I am not able to transfer it to TFS; I am not able to upgrade the project to VS2008. Thanks.

  • VSS keep resetting working folder a the root of the C: drive

    - by Alex
    I have noticed several times (that is it does not happens all the time, but occurs regulary) that VSS has forgoten my working folder settings and re-set it to be a root of the C: drive. It is very annoying to find out that some of the files you have checked out and been working on are not in the same folder where you expect them to be (and it also pollutes the drive with a C:\SubProject1, C:\SubProject2 folders instead of keeping them all inside of C:\Work). Any recomendation to prevent VSS from doing this again and again. And yes, please, don't recomment switching to SVN, CVS, TFS etc - there are the rules I can't change.

  • Is there any plugin available for integrating WSAD 5.1 and VSS?

    - by ria
    I am looking for a plugin that could integrate VSS- the CM tool I am using and WSAD 5.1. I tried downloading the version 1.6.0 of VSS plugin from http://sourceforge.net/projects/vssplugin/ , but that did not help as it seems this version of the plugin does not support WSAD 5.1 as it uses eclipse 2.1 Any help would be appreciated.

  • Can Perforce and SourceSafe co-exist in Visual Studio?

    - by Chris
    Visual Studio 2008, to be more specific. We're testing out moving to Perforce for source control, so I'd like to install the P4SCC plugin to monkey around with. However, I'd also like to continue using SourceSafe's IDE capabilities for projects that haven't been moved over yet. Can the two co-exist peacefully, or is it one or the other for a specific install of VS?

  • Why does my PDF ask for a password after being retrieved from Visual SourceSafe?

    - by Schnapple
    PREFACE: Yes we're moving away from VSS in the next few months. One of my web projects contains, as one of its files, a PDF. The PDF on our QA site is being pulled from VSS. A QA tester recently told me he's being prompted for a password when he tries to open it. VSS says the file I have on disk is different than the one it has, so I updated it, but afterwards it's still being shown as different. So basically VSS is mangling my PDF and the results are so wobbly that Adobe Acrobat Reader is confused and thinks it has a password. I've tried adding it as Auto-Detect and as Binary. Same results. Why does my PDF ask for a password after being retrieved from Visual SourceSafe and how can I prevent it?

  • Configuring Cruise Control Net with sourcesafe - Unable to load array item 'executable'

    - by albert
    Hi all, I'm trying to create a continuous integration environment. To do so, I've used a guide that can be found at http://www.15seconds.com/issue/040621.htm. In this step by step, the goal is to create a CI with CCNet, NAnt, NUni, NDoc, FxCop and source safe. I've been able to create my build by using the command prompt (despite the the different versions issues). The problem has come with the configuration of ccnet.config I've made some changes because of the new versions, but I'm still getting errors when starting the CCNet server. Can anyone help me to fix this issue or point where to find a guide with this scenario? The error that I'm getting: Unable to instantiate CruiseControl projects from configuration document. Configuration document is likely missing Xml nodes required for properly populating CruiseControl configuration. Unable to load array item 'executable' - Cannot convert from type System.String to ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.Core.ITask for object with value: "\DevTools\nant\bin\NAnt.exe" Xml: E:\DevTools\nant\bin\NAnt.exe My CCNet config file below: <cruisecontrol> <project name="BuildingSolution"> <webURL>http://localhost/ccnet</webURL> <modificationDelaySeconds>10</modificationDelaySeconds> <triggers> <intervaltrigger name="continuous" seconds="60" /> </triggers> <sourcecontrol type="vss" autoGetSource="true"> <ssdir>E:\VSS\</ssdir> <executable>C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual SourceSafe\SS.EXE</executable> <project>$/CCNet/slnCCNet.root/slnCCNet</project> <username>Albert</username> <password></password> </sourcecontrol> <prebuild type="nant"> <executable>E:\DevTools\nant\bin\NAnt.exe</executable> <buildFile>E:\Builds\buildingsolution\WebForm.build</buildFile> <logger>NAnt.Core.XmlLogger</logger> <buildTimeoutSeconds>300</buildTimeoutSeconds> </prebuild> <tasks> <nant> <executable>E:\DevTools\nant\bin\nant.exe</executable> <nologo>true</nologo> <buildFile>E:\Builds\buildingsolution\WebForm.build</buildFile> <logger>NAnt.Core.XmlLogger</logger> <targetList> <target>build</target> </targetList> <buildTimeoutSeconds>6000</buildTimeoutSeconds> </nant> </tasks> <publishers> <merge> <files> <file>E:\Builds\buildingsolution\latest\*-results.xml</file> </files> </merge> <xmllogger /> </publishers> </project> </cruisecontrol> enter code here

  • Visual Sourcesafe, sharing: commits to wrong location

    - by Snake
    I have a project under my management. It has the following structure: $/Code/MainSolution $/Code/Branches I want to branch the MainSolution in $/Code/Branches So I do it, (it works perfectly), I set a working folder for that project and do a 'get latest'. But when I open that solution in Visual Studio 2005 it identifies every file as new (+ sign in front of the file) and when I commit it it goes to $/Data/NameOfTheBranch Why does it do that? Why doesn't it follow MY rules?

  • Marshalling C# com items when using recursion

    - by Kevin
    I am using the SourceSafe COM object (SourceSafeTypeLib) from C# to automate a SourceSafe recursive get (part of a larger build process). The recursive function is shown below. How do I ensure that all the COM objects created in the foreach loop get released correctly? /// <summary> /// Recursively gets files/projects from SourceSafe (this is a recursive function). /// </summary> /// <param name="vssItem">The VSSItem to get</param> private void GetChangedFiles(VSSItem vssItem) { // 'If the object is a file perform the diff, // 'If not, it is a project, so use recursion to go through it if(vssItem.Type == (int)VSSItemType.VSSITEM_FILE) { bool bDifferent = false; //file is different bool bNew = false; //file is new //Surround the diff in a try-catch block. If a file is new(doesn't exist on //the local filesystem) an error will be thrown. Catch this error and record it //as a new file. try { bDifferent = vssItem.get_IsDifferent(vssItem.LocalSpec); } catch { //File doesn't exist bDifferent = true; bNew = true; } //If the File is different(or new), get it and log the message if(bDifferent) { if(bNew) { clsLog.WriteLine("Getting " + vssItem.Spec); } else { clsLog.WriteLine("Replacing " + vssItem.Spec); } string strGetPath = vssItem.LocalSpec; vssItem.Get(ref strGetPath, (int)VSSFlags.VSSFLAG_REPREPLACE); } } else //Item is a project, recurse through its sub items { foreach(VSSItem fileItem in vssItem.get_Items(false)) { GetChangedFiles(fileItem); } } }

  • VSS: Move file from one folder to another?

    - by shoosh
    Is there a way in Visual SourceSafe to move a file from one directory to another while retaining its history? Edit I actually found a round about way to do this. First I drag the file I want to move to the directory I want to move it to, this creates a "Link" to the file there and then I "permanently destroy" the file in its original location. Does this actually do what I thing it does?

  • Visual Source Safe on Mac OS X

    - by Jonathan Badeen
    Is there an application or API for using/accessing Visual SourceSafe (6.0) under Mac OS X? I'm currently using VSS Connect under Parallels for working with our company's ASP.NET site/s. I currently have my Windows drive shared and try to use TextMate on the Mac side to actually edit files. It would be nice to have the ability to check files in/out outside of my virtual machine though.

  • Has anyone tried vss2git?

    - by Radicalise
    OK, so I have started a contract where they are using (gulp) Visual SourceSafe and are looking to move to something better. I have recommended Git. I stumbled across vss2git, which looks useful for migrating from VSS. Has anyone used it? Many thanks!

  • Industry Reports on Source Control Tools

    - by Kent Boogaart
    Hi, I'm looking for independent industry reports that compare and contrast the various source control tools out there. In particular, I care about Clearcase vs Sourcesafe vs SVN, but if the report includes other SCM systems that's fine. I need this for a client who wants to get a feel on exactly what they stand to gain switching to SVN (yes, from Clearcase and VSS). In other words, something I can use to sell it to their business. I'm hoping some case studies have been done on developer productivity with these tools and resultant reports made freely available. Thanks, Kent
