Update for Visual SourceSafe coming

Update for Visual SourceSafe coming

  • Comments 23

We are working on an update for Visual SourceSafe 2005 to make it work with VS 2008.  We had originally planned to have it available at the same time as VS 2008 downloads went live but we hit a last minute bug that is taking a little time to work out.  Our current expectation is that it will be available in mid December.  I will announce it as soon as it is.

In the meantime, if you need to use SourceSafe with VS 2008, there is a CTP of the update available - although it requires one manual work around for during installation.  You can read more about it on Richard's blog here: http://blogs.msdn.com/richardb/archive/2007/11/19/vs-2008-users-remember-to-download-the-sourcesafe-ctp.aspx

  • But what about the license? Licensed developers of Team Suite get a SourceSafe 2005 license right? Is there a SourceSafe 2008 coming in the future?

  • It actually isn't SourceSafe 2008, it's an update to SourceSafe 2005.  If you have a license for SourceSafe 2005, you can use the update with VS 2008 - no additional charge.

  • I just didn't do anything to my Visual Studio 2005.

    I deinstalled VS2008 Beta 2 and installed the final version of VS2008. Source Safe works without problems! It checks out and in my items, I'm not working in a team

    Can this be?

  • Like Christian, I *seem* to be having no issues.

    I only have the VS2008 Beta installed.  Uninstalled, installed the RTM, and just went back to business as usual.

    Now I'm getting worried!

  • Many of the features of SourceSafe will continue to work without the patch.  The ones that will fail without it are: Open from Source Code Control, Add to Source Code Control and Share.  If you aren't using those features, you likely won't see problems.

  • Hmmm.  I've added at least one new VS 2008 project to SourceSafe 2005 and had no problems at all.  I've had VS 2008 for a few days, and this is the first I've heard of SourceSafe problems.
