    How to validate check-in policies, evaluate check-in notes, and check for conflicts
    How to validate check-in policies, evaluate check-in notes, and check for conflicts
    Avatar Buck Hodges March 20, 2006 Mar 20, 2006 03/20/06
    In the version control API, the CheckIn() method does not evaluate check-in policies and validate check-in notes.  It provides with the ability to supply both an override comment and check-in notes, as applicable, but the evaluation and validation must have been performed prior to calling CheckIn().  The reason for this is that ...

    Tim Noonan is on a blog-posting roll.  Not long ago, he did quite a bit of work to get better performance in Visual Studio when dealing with large numbers of pending changes, among other things.  Much of the performance improvements came from better use of the ListView: inserting initial items and setting checked states.He'...

    Manually modifying TFS databases is a bad idea
    Manually modifying TFS databases is a bad idea
    Avatar Buck Hodges March 18, 2006 Mar 18, 2006 03/18/06
    Over the last several months, I've seen folks post SQL hacks to modify TFS databases, usually to try to work around some limitation such as not being able to delete work item types.  Marcel de Vries, a Microsoft MVP who has been using TFS for quite a while, recently wrote a post on his experience in trying to do this.  As he mentions...

    How to get the login dialog when using the Team Foundation Server API
    Avatar Buck Hodges March 17, 2006 Mar 17, 2006 03/17/06
    Someone asked how to get the login dialog if the user fails to authenticate.  The code to do that is shown below.  I copied the call to the constructor from the basic API example, and I've added code to create and pass a UICredentialsProvider object to the TeamFoundationServer constructor.Also, I'm now calling EnsureAuthenticated().&...

    [Update 3/10/2012] If you are using TFS 2010 or newer, there is an updated version control client API example.[Update 6/13/06] While the documentation is not what it needs to be, you can find reference-style documentation on a significant amount of the API in the VS SDK (current release is April): http://blogs.msdn.com/buckh/archive/2005/12/09...

    Avatar Buck Hodges March 15, 2006 Mar 15, 2006 03/15/06
    When a rename is checked in, the server paths for other workspaces’ pending adds and branches are updated according to the rename being checked in.  If the server cannot update one or more server paths in the pending adds or branches in other workspaces because it would cause two pending changes to reside at the same server path (...

    A while back, I wrote a post on how to get better performance from the tf.exe command line.  Today, Tim Noonan, our resident hippie dev from version control land, posted about a couple of registry settings that can help improve the performance of VS with TFS.  The first helps with startup and the second helps with opening solutions. ...
