Is there a Managed Code API to Visual SourceSafe?

Question

I would like to write a C# program that can interact with Visual SourceSafe programatically to create a source code library and checkin/checkout members. Is there a managed code API for this? If not what is the best mechanism to achieve this?

Hi Normally what i will do is use the SourceSafeTypeLib OLE Automation object. You can look at the example below to get started. http://www.realdn.net/msblog/PermaLinkguide412b0ec-8162-493f-86da-eaa2027974c4.aspx But i am not that sure to get it work on the older version of source safe. Hope it helps. Cheers.
