interdev_programming thread: Howto use VSS and Visual Interdev on two separate servers
Hello,
I have the following situation:
On one server (VSSServer) we have an installation of Visual SourceSafe.
Another server (WebServer) is used as a webserver on which the master web
for Visual Interdev projects is located.
I know that it is possible to have both VSS as master web on the same
server and that then VSS check in/out when you move files from/to master
web.
How should this be done when VSS and Master Web are not on the same
server. Is it still possible to have VSS and Master Web check in/out files
at the same time?
If it is not possible, to let VSS and Visual Interdev cooperate on
separate machines, what is recommended then?
Method 1:
1: To start working with a file, check out the file from VSS to the master
web.
2: Use Visual Interdevs Get working Copy to move the file to the
developers machine.
3: Make required changes.
4: Release working copy so the changed file is moved to Master Web.
5: Check in the file into VSS from the master web.
Method 2:
1: To start working with a file, use Visual Interdevs Get Working Copy to
move the file to the developers machine.
2: Check out the file from VSS to the developers machine.
3: Make required changes.
4: Check in the file into VSS.
5: Use Visual Interdevs Release working Copy to move the file to Master
Web.
Or is there any other recommended Check In/Out + Get/Release Working Copy
method?
