I am working with Team Foundation Server plug-in for Eclipse Version 11.0.0.

I have several Eclipse workspaces and several TFS workspaces. Is it possible to associate a TFS workspace with an Eclipse workspace?
I see that mapping local folder does not work for this purpose – the workspace remains the same

  • I don't think I understand your question. In the recommended workflow, a single Eclipse workspace *does* map to a single TFS workspace, if you use the Import Wizard. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh568707.aspx Could you better describe the problem(s) you're having? – Edward Thomson Nov 20 '13 at 14:55
  • Yes, it does. But what if you have this mapping and you want to change it - in your workspace map to another TFS workspace – Alex Dec 05 '13 at 20:11

Team explorer - Pending changes - Actions - Switch workspace

TFS - Switch workspace

Write them down.

I work on a project with a team that has this same issue. After a lot of digging it doesn't seem to be possible. It would have to be functionality in the TFS plugin also if I'm not mistaken. So until the TFS plugin is released with this ability of "mapping your mappings" so to speak, it's something you have to personally keep track of.

(Perhaps the TFS plugin for Luna will have this?)

  • From teamprize: "When the Eclipse Workbench opens, the TFS workspace associated with that Eclipse workspace is activated." My question is how to switch to another TFS workspace in the existent Eclipse workspace – Alex Dec 05 '13 at 20:17
