This function checks in previously checked-out files to the source control system, storing the changes and creating a new version. This function is called with a count and an array of names of the files to be checked in.

Syntax

SCCRTN SccCheckin (
   LPVOID    pvContext,
   HWND      hWnd,
   LONG      nFiles,
   LPSTR*    lpFileNames,
   LPCSTR    lpComment,
   LONG      fOptions,
   LPCMDOPTS pvOptions
);

Parameters

pvContext

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

hWnd

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

nFiles

[in] Number of files selected to be checked in.

lpFileNames

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

lpComment

[in] Comment to be applied to each of the selected files being checked in. This parameter is NULL if the source control plug-in should prompt for a comment.

fOptions

[in] Command flags, either 0 or SCC_KEEP_CHECKEDOUT.

pvOptions

[in] SCC 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	File was successfully checked in.
SCC_E_FILENOTCONTROLLED	The selected file is not under source code control.
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_NONSPECIFICERROR	Nonspecific failure. File was not checked in.
SCC_E_NOTCHECKEDOUT	The user has not checked out the file, so cannot check it in.
SCC_E_CHECKINCONFLICT	Checkin could not be performed because: - Another user has checked in ahead and bAutoReconcile was false. -or- - The auto-merge cannot be done (for example, when files are binary).
SCC_E_VERIFYMERGE	File has been auto-merged but has not been checked in pending user verification.
SCC_E_FIXMERGE	File has been auto-merged but has not been checked in due to a merge conflict that must be manually resolved.
SCC_E_NOTAUTHORIZED	The user is not allowed to perform this operation.
SCC_I_OPERATIONCANCELED	Operation was canceled before completion.
SCC_I_RELOADFILE	A file or project needs to be reloaded.
SCC_E_FILENOTEXIST	Local file was not found.

Remarks

The comment applies to all files being checked in. The comment argument can be a null string, in which case the source control plug-in can prompt the user for a comment string for each file.

The fOptions argument can be given a value of the SCC_KEEP_CHECKEDOUT flag to indicate the user's intent to check the file in and check it out again.
