We do this using the Advanced button on the checkin dialog now (with Merant, nee PVCS) but the Advanced button is disabled when I set TFS as my SCC provider. Is there a switch we can flip on either side to enable this?

  • Or do we need to write some custom extension?
  • Or can I get the TFS changeset number to associate with the change in PB?
  • Or am I coming at doing selective builds entirely the wrong way?

We can achieve what we want by creating a Note field in TFS and making it required on check in. The SCC interface will make the TFS check-in dialog appear & force the developer to enter a value in the field. We can then use the Note to find the associated changeset & do extracts based on the changeset. Thanks to all who looked at this.

  • thanks for posting the answer, this is (academically) interesting. We're using PowerBuilder with PVCS 6.8 at present and may be moving – Colin Pickard Nov 26 '08 at 11:42
