.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / Source Safe / December 2003Any news on support or new versions
Source Safe is still in version 6.0 that was released years ago with Visual Studio 6.0. Since that time I have not heard of anything from Microsoft as to whether or not they will release a new version of Source Safe or even if they will continue to support the current version. We are looking into making a decision pertaining to using a version control agent and just want to make sure that if we dedicate ourselves to VSS that they will not pull it off the market in a short time. Has anyone heard of any news of development of a new version or support initiatives that Microsoft may have for the current version? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance... The current version (6.0d) is what is released with VS.NET and includes changes specific to both VS.NET 2002 and VS.NET 2003. MS is continuing to support VSS. As to what the next version will look like, we'll have to wait and see. Weston > Source Safe is still in version 6.0 that was released > years ago with Visual Studio 6.0.

With SCM, enterprise developers can make safe alterations to existing code, track changes across developers, projects, and time, manage the build process effectively, and track project defects and issues. By providing project-oriented software management, Microsoft Visual SourceSafe delivers integrated SCM support for developers using Visual Studio. In Whidbey, Microsoft will improve upon the Visual SourceSafe tools and offer programmers working in teams the technology they need to manage source code as well as other files in their solutions. Visual SourceSafe will be extended to offer support for Web service and Unicode projects, helping programmers more effectively meet the challenges of today's business. Further, Visual SourceSafe will better support team development with remote access, both by making common operations faster and asynchronous, and by enabling access through firewalls. Hence, developers will enjoy improved performance and tighter integration between Visual SourceSafe and the Visual Studio IDE. ----------------------------------------------------- Automate your software builds with Visual Build Pro http://www.kinook.com > Source Safe is still in version 6.0 that was released > years ago with Visual Studio 6.0.
