  `MSVSSADD`, `MSVSSCHECKIN`, `MSVSSCHECKOUT`, `MSVSSCP`, `MSVSSCREATE`, `MSVSSGET`, `MSVSSHISTORY`, `MSVSSLABEL`

public abstract class MSVSS extends Task implements MSVSSConstants
A base class for creating tasks for executing commands on Visual SourceSafe.

The class extends the 'exec' task as it operates by executing the ss.exe program supplied with SourceSafe. By default the task expects ss.exe to be in the path, you can override this be specifying the ssdir attribute.

This class provides set and get methods for 'login' and 'vsspath' attributes. It also contains constants for the flags that can be passed to SS.
