Visual Build provides the SourceSafe action to automate access to Microsoft Visual SourceSafe. The SourceSafe action creates a step for configuring database operations.
When the step is built, the SourceSafe action invokes the VSS ss.exe command-line executable to perform the requested operation. Some options do not apply to all operations and will be excluded from the generated command-line.
This action has been tested with SourceSafe 6.0 and 2005 and may work with other versions as well.
Notes:
| • | See the SourceSafe.bld sample for projects utilizing this action. |
| • | See the ContinuousIntegration.bld sample for a sample of incorporating SourceSafe into continuous integration builds. |
| • | By default, this action is not displayed (existing steps will still be displayed in the Step panes and will build normally). To show all hidden actions, right-click in the Actions pane and choose Show Hidden. |
