I've mentioned the Team Foundation Version Control client API example before as good way to get started with the API, and there are examples with labels and items too.  You can find documentation for the classes and methods in the Team Foundation Version Control API in the October Visual Studio SDK release.  Once you install it, you can f...

You are probably familiar with the Pending Changes window if you've been using Visual Studio with Team Foundation (View -> Other Windows -> Pending Changes).  Have you ever wanted to have the Pending Changes window show only the pending changes for files in the currently open solution and not all of the other changes in your workspa...

Bryan MacFarlane posted a troubleshooting guide for warehouse problems in the MSDN Team Foundation Forum.  If you are having problems with your warehouse or reports, it's a good resource to try to figure out what's going wrong.

One of the problems that users encounter when using Source Control Explorer is knowing what state the file or folder is in, particularly if it is shown in gray rather than black text.  In beta 3 refresh and ealier, gray text meant that the file or folder was unmapped, cloaked, deleted, or not downloaded.  There was no way to tell a d...

Someone asked a question today about getting the URI for a Team Project.  James Manning's Team Project code sample showed how to do it using the API.  However, that was overkill in this case.  Bill Essary pointed out that you can select the Team Project in Team Explorer, right-click on it, and choose Properties (rather than right-cli...

Jeff Beehler has just written a post about the newly-released December CTP of TFS.  Jeff describes some of what changed, but probably the most important thing is that it is NOT supported under the go-live license.  There will not be any migration scripts to move to it or from it.The reason for that is that this release hasn't been th...

I had mentioned in my September 10th post on file type detection that you couldn't change the encoding on a pending add, without undoing the add and re-adding it.  While it won't work in beta 3 or beta 3 refresh, you'll be able to change the encoding on a pending add in the next public release.  That means you can use the edit command wit...

Have you wished that the output of the dir command from tf.exe would show you the dates and sizes of the files like cmd.exe's dir command?  Even though tf.exe won't do that in version 1, the version control API provides the call necessary.  This little app is similar to my last post on displaying labels on a file.  You can find ...

Unfortunately, there's not a fast, efficient way to see the list of labels in the system with the full comment without also seeing a list of all of the files included in a label.  You also can't efficiently answer the question, "What labels involve foo.cs?"  While this won't be changed for v1, you can certainly do it u...

If you want to learn more about web load testing in VSTS, you'll want to check out Ed Glas' webcast on Tuesday, Oct. 25.  Brian Harry has been using VSTS load testing developed by Ed's group to answer the question, "How many users will your Team Foundation Server support?"  Find out how you can do the same for your own web site or we...
