Visual sourcesafe tree view is not synchronize with the root folder?

I'm using microsoft visual sourcesafe 2005.

I set the database folder is D:\Code

When I merge code and check in the new code in to source safe. I assume that the file that I has just checked in is $\Code\a.cpp. But when I open the file a.cpp on folder D:\Code\a.cpp, I don't see the new lines code checked in. It always is the old version of files.

Is that VSS's bug?

Thank you!

You are probably confused with the "working folder" concept. Say, you set D:\Code as the working folder of $/, and the solution/project which contains a.cpp is in another folder, say, E:\Code.

Now, if you edit a.cpp in Visual Studio and then check in, "E:\Code\a.cpp" is updated, but not "D:\Code\a.app".

It would be better if you can provide more information.

  1. How did you merge the files? Please make sure that you merged the modification to $\Code\a.cpp, not the opposite.

  2. Please check the history of a.cpp and learn the actions you've done on the file. Do the diff operation on the historic versions if necessary.

  3. Instead of opening the local file, did you try opening a.cpp directly from VSS?
