-
- <p>These tasks provide an interface to the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/ssafe/default.asp" target="_top">
- Microsoft Visual SourceSafe</a> SCM via <a href="http://www.sourcegear.com">
- SourceGear's</a> <a href="http://sourcegear.com/sos/index.htm">SourceOffSite</a>
- product. SourceOffSite is an add-on to Microsoft's VSS, that allows remote
- development teams and tele-commuters that need fast and secure read/write
- access to a centralized SourceSafe database via any TCP/IP connection. SOS
- provides Linux ,Solaris & Windows clients. The
- <code> org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.sos</code>
- package consists of a simple framework to support SOS functionality as well
- as some Ant tasks encapsulating frequently used SOS commands. Although it
- is possible to use these commands on the desktop, they were primarily intended
- to be used by automated build systems. These tasks have been tested with
- SourceOffSite version 3.5.1 connecting to VisualSourceSafe 6.0. The tasks
- have been tested with Linux, Solaris & Windows2000.</p>
