RE: [Nant-users] vssget - version=

[Peter Lanoie]

Eric,

 

I have had similar problems with VSSGET.  I have been labeling my projects when they get built with a build.revision number (9999.9999).  Following that, I call VSSGET using that label.  I have not had it break on that call like you are seeing ("Version not found") however I have since attempted to get a past version and it indeed does not retrieve the past version, only returns the current.  I think there is a problem with the task or the VSS COM DLL.  I tried using a text label and then it totally failed.  The task docs state that it accepts a version number, date, or label but I'm not exact sure how it would know the difference between a version number and a label given that labels can be anything. If you are unfortunate enough to have a label that matches a version number, what happens?  Also, given that I got total failure on text labels, I'm not sure how to fix the problem.  Otherwise, I have had good luck with the VSS tasks.

I'm trying to get vssget based on a label working.  It works well for me without a label.  I'm using nantContrib from 6/3/2003.  Here's my .build file:

 

<project name="GetLatest">
    <vssget
        user="Efetzer"
        localpath="D:\TestGetLatest\Development"
        recursive="true"
        replace="true"
        writable="true"
        dbpath="\\Server\Repository\srcsafe.ini"
        path="$/Development"
        version="Build 53"
    />
</project>

 

NAnt is saying:

 

 vssget failed
Version not found

 

This particular label was created at the same level as the path.  Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?  Thanks - Eric
