If you start a Visual Studio VB/C# project and put into VSS, Visual Studio will not automatically include the bin folder in VSS.
Conversely, some project managers like to add the bin folder to VSS, so that it is easier to keep a version of third-party components/DLLs “together with” the source code.
When you are in Visual Studio, and you get the latest version of a Project from VSS:
"access to pdb/d
When the bin folder is in Visual Source Safe,
When you do a Rebuild, you will see an error/warning like this:
To fix, make the bin folder “writable”,
open Windows explorer,
right-click the bin folder,
point Properties -> General Tab,
then un-check the Read-only checkbox.
Then rebuild J

====================================================
If you need to store thirdparty components in VSS then it should be
stored in a seperate folder. Use pre-build command line to automatically
copy it to bin folder.Exclude bin folder from vss, its not a good
practice. If you need to store binaries in VSS then use seperate build server
to regularly build your projects and store binaries in VSS.
