To change defaults for the integration with Visual C++ and Visual Studio .NET

Procedure

  1. In Visual C++ and Visual Studio .NET, click Tools > Options.
  2. Click the Source Control tab and change any of the following options:
    • Get files when opening the workspace
    • Check out source files when edited
    • Check in files when closing the workspace
    • Prompt to add files when inserted
    • Perform background status updates
    • Use dialog for checkout
    • Add new projects to source control
    • Include only selected files in dialogs
  3. Click Advanced.
  4. In the VersionVault Options window, click the General tab and select any of the following options:
    • Search for new project files
    • Enable the Get Latest Version command on the Source Control menu
  5. Click the Operations tab.
  6. In Visual Studio .NET, for best performance, perform the following tasks:
    • Select Check in even if identical. This option preserves many zero-length files used by Visual Studio .NET.
    • Select Preserve file modified time on checkin. This option prevents needless reloading of resources.
    • Clear Save copy of file with a .keep extension. Visual Studio .NET saves many files in temporary form, making .keep files extraneous.

    • Check in even if identical
    • Reserved
    • Save copy of file with a .keep extension
    • Always prompt for an activity when working in a view of a VersionVault project
