Could you telnet to a Windoze box and run VSS from there? Perhaps with a Samba share back to the Linux box? Never tried it, but maybe Rant (Remote Ant) is worth a look?

Well, we are moving to CVS very slowly, but until then, I was hoping to be able to get our project out onto linux and build it from there as well. We are working on deploying to linux for the first time. There is no way to execute the SS task on the server it runs on? I basically point both ssdir to the \\server\path that it is located in. Of course, most likely it is trying to run it on the linux box. No way to "exec" the call to get the files? -----Original Message----- From: Rosendahl Sten - stro [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 23, 2003 9:33 AM To: 'Ant Users List' Subject: RE: How to use VSS from script running on linux..? I'm afraid you'll have to wait for JSR147 (http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=147) or try to access SourceSafe for Linux (http://www.kegel.com/linux/vss-howto.html) or why not think of using something (anything!) else than SourceSafe ;-) Sten Rosendahl -----Original Message----- From: Duffey, Kevin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 23, 2003 6:25 PM To: Ant Users List Subject: How to use VSS from script running on linux..? Hi all, I am trying to use our windows based script that connects to our VSS server via the \\server\share name to run it. When I run this script on linux, it give ma a java.io.IOException. I guess it makes sense, but is there any "abstracted" source control API that allows you to get/put/compare/etc with any source control system for Ant? I use the VSS tasks to get, check out, etc, and they work great on windows. Just want to know how I can get them to work the same when running the script on linux.
