Make a solution independent from sourcesafe   
Hello,

I would like to test the conversion from visual studio 2005 to 2008, for an 
existing solution in our sourcesafe database, but I'm facing the following 
problem:

After obtaining the project from the visual sourcesafe program (not from 
visual studio, of course)  to another folder different from the one that 
resides our current project, my idea was to test the conversion to visual 
studio 2008, but when I open the project, the wizard is telling me that the 
project is still under source control, and that the conversion process will 
check out all the files on the corresponding sourcesafe database.

I don't want that, as I only want to test the conversion on an absolutely 
isolated project. So my question is, how can I make this 'test' project 
isolated from sourcesafe ?...

I've tried to delete all .ss and .vspscc and .vssscc but the wizard 
continues telling me that the project is still under source control

thanks in advance,

RE: Make a solution independent from sourcesafe   
Hello Roger,

It sounds like you'd like to remove VSS dependencies from current project. 
You have tried deleting all VSS related files (.ss, .vspscc, .vssscc), but 
it still doesn't work. If I misunderstood anything here, please don't 
hesitate to correct me.

If this is the case, removing ss/vss/vssccc files isn't enough for you. 
It's also necessary for you to remove some VSS stuff from solution/project 
files. Please follow the steps as below:

1.	Please check your solution file (.sln). Open it in text editor and 
remove following sections"

	GlobalSection(SourceCodeControl) = preSolution
		SccNumberOfProjects = 2
		SccLocalPath0 = .
		SccProjectUniqueName1= indowsApplication44\\WindowsApplication44.csproj
		SccLocalPath1 = .
		SccProjectFilePathRelativizedFromConnection1 = WindowsApplication44\\
	EndGlobalSection

2.	Then, please check your project file (.csproj/.vbproj). Open it in text 
editor and remove following sections

	<SccProjectName>SAK</SccProjectName>
	<SccLocalPath>SAK</SccLocalPath>
	<SccAuxPath>SAK</SccAuxPath>
	<SccProvider>SAK</SccProvider>

Now, you have broken the link between this project and VSS database.

Hope this helps. Please feel free to update here again, if there is 
anything unclear. It's my pleasure to assist you.

Have a great day,
Best regards,

Wen Yuan

I'm curious about your answer. Can't you just use Change Source Control in 
Visual Studio to unbind the projects from source control? Is there perhaps a 
problem with putting the projects back into source control?

Thanks

Re: Make a solution independent from sourcesafe   
Hello Mike,
Thanks for your reply.

Unbinding Source Control in VS IDE is a great suggestion. Thanks for your 
information. We can achieve that by File|Source Control|Unbind. 

I forgot VS IDE in my first reply. Because Roger deleted all .ss/.vssscc 
file, I assume he wants to unbind project manually,  Thus, I recommend we 
also should have to remove some vss stuff from Solution and project file. 

> Is there perhaps a problem with putting the projects back into source 
control?
Sure, this way is safe. There will be no problem with putting the projects 
back into source control. Actually, this way is what VS IDE does when 
unbinding. (modify solution and project file)  Sometime, when VS IDE 
doesn't work fine, we have to unbind project by this way. 

Please feel free to update here again, you have any more concern. We are 
glad to assist you.

Have a great day,
Best regards,

Wen Yuan
