3.1.9 - VS.Net Web Projects and deleted files

jnapier · Post by **jnapier** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 10:31 am

The release notes for version 3.1.9 state the following

Visual Studio Client
- Deleted files in web projects in Visual Studio 2005 no longer get added back to the project if the Get Latest is done on the project file.
- Web project files are now retrieved after an Open From Source Control when the Vault working folder had already been set to a location that is different from the location specified in the Open From Source Control.

I am a little confused by this since web projects in VS.Net 2005 do not have a Web Project File. If a file is deleted from the web project and another developer still has the file on thier system it does get added back into source control when the change set is checked in. Could I please get a better explanation of what this is supposed to be fixing. Thanks.

There is no underlying project file, but in Visual Studio, a Get Latest on the project name (which is the project file in other projects) will do a recursive Get (instead of a Get on individual files), which will remove the files that should be deleted.

Do you have to have the Perform Repository Deletions Locally option set to Remove Working Copy for this to work?

Yes, your default must be set to this
