Check out empty folder doesn't work?

Post by lzandman » Wed Feb 09, 2005 5:26 am

Hi,

One of my projects that I've put into Vault contains an empty subfolder. When I check out the entire project recursively Vault doesn't create the empty folder on my hard disc. Is this by design? Or is it a bug?

Note that I fill the empty folder after check out with files that I don't want to put under source control. But I do want the folder itself to be added to Vault. Currently I've put a placeholder file in the empty folder, so it will be created when I check out this placeholder file. But I'm not satisfied with this solution.

What version of Vault are you using? Are you doing the checkout from the GUI Client or IDE client?

Definitely a bug...

... I've been able to reproduce this using both the Windows client and from within VS.NET 2003. In both cases, the empty folder is created on a get latest, but is not when a recursive checkout is run.

I'll log this as a bug.

Oops, forgot to mention that. I'm using version 3.0.0 (2752).
