Hi Luc,

I'm not sure what you want to automate: finding the change in the shared library? You can hook events in VSS, but what I've found when doing it is that it slows VSS down a lot. So, it's really better to parse the VSS log file, for that part.

As for automating VSS to perform actions, take a look at Ted Roche's book from Hentzenwerke: he lays it out very nicely.

>>For building, you mainly need the command BUILD EXE. You can add some more stuff, as required. For instance, to allow updating the EXE on the server while the users were using it, I gave each version a different number, included in the filename: MyApp0001.exe, MyApp0002.exe, etc. This, of course, I automated through a PRG. Your specific requirements may be different.
