Add to Vault folder insists on adding project suffix to dir

Post by Waylander1970 » Thu Mar 23, 2006 12:42 pm

Hi,

I have an existing solution that looks like;

wwwroot
\MyAppFolder
\MyWebsite
\OtherClasses
\MoreClasses
\Reports *******

The sub folder 'reports' is a SQL Server reporting services project, when I add this to my solution and then use 'Change Source Control' to make sure the server binding is correct, it keeps suffixing the 'Add project to Vault folder' with the solution name and I cannot stop it.

The repository looks like;

$
\MyAppFolder
** Other folder all the same.

When using the 'Add to vault folder' clicking on $\MyAppFolder in the tree the 'Project to add' reads 'MyAppFolder', the 'Add project from working folder is 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\MyAppFolder\reports' which looks good but the 'Add project to Vault folder' is '$/MyAppFolder/MyAppFolder'.

This is driving me mad. Any clues?

Ryan

Two of our projects ended up in the wrong place.
So first it was
$/ProjectName/Website
and after a rebinding ( i think ) it was "copied" in
$/ProjectName/Website/Website

Kind off odd?

(Based on my recollection of what VC6 did) If the project you are adding is in the directory MyAppFolder, and you want it to appear as $/MyAppFolder/MyAppFolder.vcproj (for example), you wan to click on $/, and enter MyAppFolder in the edit field. The tree gives the *parent* project, and the edit field gives the folder name.

This is not the most intuitive interface (it's a VS interface, I was using VSS at the time) and I did this wrong more times than I care to count.
