Retrieves writable copies from Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere for VSS and places them in your working folder, so that you can modify them.
In Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere for VSS, select the items you want to check out and click Check Out on the SourceSafe menu.
The Check Out command enables users to edit specific files locally. This command locks the checked out files and projects within the database so that they can not be deleted, pinned or renamed.
Specifies an optional comment (up to 63 characters) on the Check Out operation. The comment you have added can be viewed on the Check Out Status tab in the File Properties dialog box.
Specifies the working folder to which the items are checked out. By default, SouceAnyWhere copies files into your working folder with the same name as in the database. However, you can enter a different folder and file path, or click Browse to select a different location in the folder tree.
Checks out the project and all its subprojects.
Note: The cloaked subproject could not be checked out.
Overrides the working folder set for the subprojects involved in a recursive operation, and builds a Project Tree that mirrors the project organization on your local computer. Working folder settings for individual subprojects are ignored. Available only when you select the Recursive check box.
Tells Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere for VSS not to retrieve local copies of the items. Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere for VSS records that the file is checked out, but does not write a new copy to your working folder.
Determines how Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere for VSS behaves when you try to check out a file that is already marked as writable in your working folder. Possible options are as follows:
Ask: Prompts for each file when a writable version is found on your local disk.
Replace: Replaces the local file with the version on the server (and lose all local changes).
Skip: Does not check out files from server to local folder (not retrieving the latest version from the server).
Merge: Automatically attempts to merge differences between the local copy and the latest version in the database.
End-of-line Terminator
Specifies the end-of-line terminator for files. Possible options are as follows:
Mac(\r)
Unix(\n)
Windows (\r\n)The default EOL mode is set on the Tools->Options-> Files Tab. It needs to be changed if the operating system where the working folder resides differs from the operating system Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere for VSS Client is currently running on. For example, if Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere for VSS Client is running on a Windows operating system but needs to retrieve files to a working folder that is on a Mac OS, you can change the EOL Terminator to Mac(\r) so that files retrieved to the working folder will be displayed correctly.
Set File Time
Associates a time with the checkout. Possible options are as follows:
Current: Sets the modified date and time of the local copy to the current date and time.
Modification: Sets the modified date and time of the local copy to the date and time when the file was last modified.
Check In: Sets the modified date and time of the local copy to the date and time when the file was last checked in.
The default option in this dropdown list is set on the Tools->Options->Files Tab.
