SourceSafe Data File Update

 
  Prev Page   Next Page

ByDave Goodall

 
Normal processing for the checkin of an updated file:
 

 


*If the old data file has a .a extension, the updated data file is copied into the file system as a .b
*The old .a and new .b files are compared, and the difference (delta) saved in the 'log' file
*The 'log' file's internal reference is changed to reference the new .b data file.
*The old 'data' .a file is deleted, leaving the new 'data' .b file.
