Let's say you create a VC++ project called "ProjectA" within Visual Studio 6.0. Then, you add the project to source control to a folder called "Original" using Vault as the default source control provider.
You close Visual Studio, open the Vault Windows Client, and share this project into a new Vault folder called "Share".
So the Vault source tree looks as follows:
- Code: Select all
$
|_ Original
|_ ProjectA
|_ Share
|_ ProjectA
After the share, set a working folder for the shared folder ($/Share/ProjectA) in the Vault Windows Client. Then, edit the project file (ProjectA.dsp) in Notepad with the following changes:
Change the line
- Code: Select all
# PROP Scc_ProjName "$/Original/ProjectA"
to
- Code: Select all
# PROP Scc_ProjName "$/Share/ProjectA"
Save this change and check in the "ProjectA.dsp" file.
At this point, you can either perform a recursive Get Latest operation on "$/Shared/ProjectA" in the Windows Client, then open the project in Visual Studio, or launch Visual Studio and perform an Open From Source Control operation on "$/Shared/ProjectA".
