Open from source control gives only one chance

Post by vrapp » Wed Dec 15, 2004 9:20 am

If in VB.Net 2003 I "open from source control...", then cancel the dialog, then retry to "open from source control", it does not work. Have to restart vb.

Yes, there should have been a warning that cancelling a login attempt will not allow you to attempt another login attempt during that session.

This was done so that if you really want to cancel a login attempt on a solution with 10 projects, it will allow you to cancel once, rather than 10 times (because VS calls into scc 10 times in that case before cancelling). We now set a flag on a cancel that then ignores additional login attempts automatically (after warning that we will be doing this).

a suggestion: put a checkbox: "cancel any future attempts w/o asking".
