What is it?
ESSTP (Eclipse SourceSafe Team Provider) is an open source plugin that provides Microsoft SourceSafe functionality to users of the Eclipse tool platform.

What do I need?
ESSTP requires Eclipse 2.0 or greater, Sun JRE 1.3.1 or greater, and Visual SourceSafe 6.0 or greater.

How does it work?
ESSTP controls SourceSafe via COM automation components. Even though ESSTP is a java program this is possible because of the delightfully easy to use and open source, JCom.

What SourceSafe functionality does ESSTP support?
ESSTP currently supports the following SourceSafe commands: Get Latest Version, Check In, Check Out, Undo Check Out, Add Files, History, and Difference. Of course, there are more in the works!

Show Me!
Package Explorer, ESSTP View, Get Options Dialog, Check Out Options Dialog, Check In Options Dialog, History Dialog, Difference Dialog.
