devenv command line build "from" VSS

[Nandor Klatsmanyi]

I'm looking for VS.NET command line options (if any) to build a solution
from VSS. I couldn't find anything in the doco so far that would do this (in
one or more steps):
1. get the solution file from VSS
2. get the project files contained by the solution from VSS
3. get the files contained by the project files from VSS
4. build the solution

Note: I do not want to use the VSS command line to get a branch as it gets
the lot, instead of the ones only that are configured in the sln and proj
files.

TIA

Nandor

The open solution from source control command will do steps 1 to 3 first
time. After that, the get latest verision command will update.

You can write a macro that does a Get latest version followed by a build,
although VSSafe will display merge UI.
