Happy holidays OzTFS'ers. Thanks for another great year.
Just in time for the holidays, the Team Foundation Power Tools for VS2008 can be found here<http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=8013790>. Lots of new features in this release (see below), I have highlighted a few on Ed Hint'z blog<http://blogs.msdn.com/edhintz/archive/2007/12/21/team-foundation-power-tools-for-vs2008-hot-now.aspx>. New in this Release [PicExportError] Find in Source Control tool is an addition to the Team Explorer menu that provides the ability to locate files and folders in source control by the item's status or with a wildcard expression. [PicExportError] Open a selected folder in Windows Explorer straight from Team Explorer. This feature allows you to jump straight to the mapped folder location from within Source Control Explorer. [PicExportError] Quick Label feature that allows labels to be easily applied to a given selection of files and folders in the Source Control Explorer. [PicExportError] Build Notification tool that runs in the Windows task bar notification area monitoring the status of the build definitions you have specified. It can be configured to show notifications when builds are queued, started, or completed for multiple build definitions spanning multiple Team Foundation Servers. [PicExportError] Additional TFPT.EXE commands for configuring Team Explorer connection settings (tweakui) and for destroying Work Items and Work Items Type Definitions (destroyWI, destroyWITD). [PicExportError] Updates to the TFS Best Practices Analyzer for use with a Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Foundation Server deployment. [PicExportError] The Process Template Editor is updated for use with Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Foundation Server. It also has several improvements, including: the ability to launch standalone w/o a Visual Studio installation, performance improvements, improved discoverability and bug fixes. [PicExportError] Bug fixes and removal of Power Tools that are now included within Team Foundation Server: [PicExportError] Annotate and Treedif are now included in Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Explorer; however, Annotate remains is still available in the command-line tool (TFPT.EXE). [PicExportError] TestToolsTask is included in Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Foundation Server as part of Team Foundation Build. Let us know what you think and what you want in the next release.
