vs2003 SCM integration
-
Until recently, for everything I've worked on at home I've used Perforce integrated into the IDE, so all of my projects have that information stored in it. I recently installed WinCVS and got some open source that I was going to work with. These projects all have CVS information embedded in it. I thought this would be OK (since the project files had the info) - however, when I opened up the files with CVS, it tried to find the files in Perforce. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I assumed it would all just work since the source info was project specific - but it sure isn't looking like it. Is what I'm trying to do possible? I have a hard time believing I'm the only one trying to do this. ----- In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king.

That would explain it. WTF though, with SCM data saved in each specific project, it shouldn't be an issue for the IDE to handle any number of SCM's, even in the same solution if the user so pleased - though I can see reasons for wanting to at least put that restriction in, but only one in the IDE is plain stupid. (OK, ranting over - I guess we can't have everything, right?) I guess that also means that there's not going to be a way to switch back and forth between the two (well, easily anyway). Hmm ... does VS2005 support more than one SCM? I'll have to dig around and see, then port everything over if so. If all else fails, I suppose I can update the projects to VS005 that need to connect to one SCM, and use VS2003 for the other. What a PITA! Thanks for the reply, I had pretty much given up on getting an answer for this. ----- In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king.
