This function adds new files to the source control system.

Syntax

SCCRTN SccAdd(
   LPVOID    pvContext,
   HWND      hWnd,
   LONG      nFiles,
   LPCSTR*   lpFileNames,
   LPCSTR    lpComment,
   LONG*     pfOptions,
   LPCMDOPTS pvOptions
);

Parameters

pvContext

[in] The source control plug-in context structure.

hWnd

[in] A handle to the IDE window that the source control plug-in can use as a parent for any dialog boxes that it provides.

nFiles

[in] Number of files selected to be added to the current project as given in the lpFileNames array.

lpFileNames

[in] Array of fully qualified local names of files to be added.

lpComment

[in] The comment to be applied to all of the files being added.

pfOptions

[in] Array of command flags, provided on a per-file basis.

pvOptions

[in] Source control plug-in-specific options.

Return value

The source control plug-in implementation of this function is expected to return one of the following values:

Value Description
SCC_OK The add operation was successful.
SCC_E_FILEALREADYEXISTS The selected file is already under source control.
SCC_E_TYPENOTSUPPORTED The type of the file (for example, binary) is not supported by the source control system.
SCC_E_OPNOTSUPPORTED The source control system does not support this operation.
SCC_E_ACCESSFAILURE There was a problem accessing the source control system, probably due to network or contention issues. A retry is recommended.
SCC_E_NOTAUTHORIZED The user is not allowed to perform this operation.
SCC_E_NONSPECIFICERROR Nonspecific failure; add not performed.
SCC_I_OPERATIONCANCELED The operation was cancelled before completion.
SCC_I_RELOADFILE A file or project needs to be reloaded.
SCC_E_FILENOTEXIST Local file was not found.

Remarks

The usual fOptions are replaced here by an array, pfOptions, with one LONG option specification per file. This is because the file type may vary from file to file.

Note

It is invalid to specify both SCC_FILETYPE_TEXT and SCC_FILETYPE_BINARY options for the same file, but it is valid to specify neither. Setting neither is the same as setting SCC_FILETYPE_AUTO, in which case the source control plug-in autodetects the file type.

Below is the list of flags used in the pfOptions array:

Option Value Meaning
SCC_FILETYPE_AUTO 0x00 The source control plug-in should detect the file type.
SCC_FILETYPE_TEXT 0x01 Indicates an ASCII text file.
SCC_FILETYPE_BINARY 0x02 Indicates a file type other than ASCII text.
SCC_ADD_STORELATEST 0x04 Stores only the latest copy of the file, no deltas.
SCC_FILETYPE_TEXT_ANSI 0x08 Treats the file as ANSI text.
SCC_FILETYPE_UTF8 0x10 Treats the file as Unicode text in UTF8 format.
SCC_FILETYPE_UTF16LE 0x20 Treats the file as Unicode text in UTF16 Little Endian format.
SCC_FILETYPE_UTF16BE 0x40 Treats the file as Unicode text in UTF16 Big Endian format.
