First u need a MakeFile (Project/Export Makefile in VC++5/6)<br />
Add it to SourceSafe.<br />
Get all the project files with command line of SS:<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; SS Get $/&lt;project path&gt; (and some parameters see SS help)<br />
Build the project with<br />

O.k. but there's still a manual step: I have to create the makefile manually. It has to be in batch!!!!! What if the makefile in Sourcesafe is not updated by a developer but the only .dsp or the .dsp? <br />

Is there a way to automatically get a Visual C++ Project out of Visual Source Safe ( with its dependent projects ), then to start a buildprocess autmatically. <br />
It has to run e.g. in the night in batch on a NT Server. Any prototypes? Working examples?

Build Environment

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
