SUMMARY
The following command line switches were not documented in the SourceSafe
version 3.0 Command Line Reference or the SourceSafe 3.1 Reference Manuals:
- When you use the -O@<filename> switch, the at character (@) with the -O
switch sends standard errors to the file as well as SourceSafe output
- When you use the -o&<filename> switch, the ampersand character (&) with
the -O switch suppresses the 'SourceSafe Output' window in the Windows
and Windows NT Command Line executables.
- When you use the -exitcode switch, SourceSafe outputs an exitcode.
Combining these switches allows for automated macros that do not require
intervention from the user. For example:
SS GET $/build -r -o@&bldreslt.txt -exitcode
