An updated TFS MSSCCI provider is available

Brian Harry

Yesterday we posted the latest update of the TFS MSSCCI provider.  In addition to the support for VS6 in the last pre-release, this new version also works with VS2003, VS2002 and FoxPro.  It is likely it will also work with other MSSCCI enabled environments (like the SQLServer tools, PowerBuilder, etc.) but no testing has been done on other environments yet.  If you try it out, please let us know of any bugs you find or any successes you have.  This new MSSCCI provider is ONLY compatible with the TFS Release Candidate.

You can download the new provider at:

In addition to the new environment support, we’ve beefed up the checkin dialog so you can use the whole integrated checkin experience – linking work items, running checkin policies, etc.  We’ve also fixed quite a few bugs and smoothed out rough edges.

It is important to remember that this MSSCCI provider is an “unsupported” add-on.  It is not shipping “with” TFS and is not an official part of the product.  We are making it available for those who get value from it.  We will continue to fix bugs and release updates on a fairly regular basis.  If you find issues, please let us know by posting on the TFS forum or filing a bug through the MSDN Product Feedback Center.  Please don’t call customer support as they will not be able to help you.

Thanks,

Brian
