What are the tips for getting keyword expansion working?
Make sure that the srcsafe.ini variable Keyword_Masks is set to the appropriate file types you want to expand keywords in. (e.g. Keyword_Masks=*.cpp,*.h,*.idl)
• Remember that the keywords are case sensitive and include a colon at the end: $History:$
• If you’re using something that generates multiple lines, like $History:$, you need to have the section [Keyword Comments] set up to proper values for commenting out each line:
[Keyword Comments]
*.cpp=”// “
*.frm=”’”
• See 'keyword expansion' in the VSS online help for further info
