The BizTalk return

Raúl Alarcón García-Cuevas — Wed, 01 Feb 2006 17:09:00 GMT

It's been a long time since my last post. I have been very busy with my current project, but I come back with the intention of write every week, at least! This will be my purpose for this year (it could be late to this purpose?!).

Well, my intention now is to be a referent about BizTalk... this product is emerging and every day is most present at the enterprise development. BizTalk is a very, very complex and wide product, and it's really engaged with Visual Studio 2005 development, I hope that my knowledge in this field of development will help the people involved in projects with these technologies.

To start with my new "blog-target", the next 8th of February I will have the pleasure of present all the new features in BizTalk 2006 to the spanish staff. The presentation is through WebCast technology at Microsoft Web ;-): http://www.microsoft.com/spain/technet/jornadas/webcasts/060208_info.mspx

Visual Studio 2005, Error using MSBuild and the SourceSafe.Get Task

Raúl Alarcón García-Cuevas — Tue, 30 Aug 2005 12:46:00 GMT

I'm trying to get the latest version of my project through msbuild project. I have defined a SourceSafe.Get task (from Microsoft.Sdc.Tasks project) to do that. When I try to execute the task I get the following error: "Unable to find the Visual SourceSafe registry key"

I can't find any information about this issue...

This is the task in the .proj file:

<Target Name="Latest">
  <SourceSafe.Get
   UserName="raul"
   Password=""
   Database=""\\amon\dfs\VSS ilitia""
   Project="$\Proyectos\PeopleTracker"
   WorkingDirectory=".\" >
  </SourceSafe.Get>
</Target>

Following, the complete output:
C:\Proyectos\MyProject\build.proj(30,3): error : A task error has occured.
