Birds of different feathers...

... still flock together!

After a long battle, I finally managed to put Eclipse and Visual Source Safe working together.

Here is a short walk-through:

  • Install Eclipse Europa 3.3
  • Install Eclipse SDK (Software Updates->Find Updates)
  • Install VSSPlugin, and then put THIS version over it
If all goes well, you can connect to VSS with Eclipse. If not, ask these guys...

101 Ways To Know Your Software Project Is Doomed

Here is a list to all project managers and developers.
My favourites:

9. You start considering a new job so you don’t have to maintain the application you are building
15. You are friends with the janitor
41. The phrase ‘It works on my machine’ is heard more than once a day
48. The last book you read - Visual InterDev 6 Bible
86. Your car is towed from the office parking lot as it was thought to be abandoned
95. You have cut and pasted code from The Daily WTF

Make a little test: count how many of the items in the list happened to you...

PS: my count is over 15, and climbing...
