Wow! This is great! Tonight I just wanted to find out if and how it would work …
This is what I did with Beta 2 of Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate and TFS 2010 Basic on my Win7 laptop:
- created a new Team Project
- added a new solution with a C# Library Project to the Team Project
- added a default Team Build to build the C# Library Project
- added a new solution with a C# WPF Project to the Team Project
- referenced the library assembly (file reference to dll) into the C# WPF Project and called a method on a class in that assembly
- set a breakpoint on that line and hit F5 to start/debug the WPF application
- pressed F11 (Step Into) when breakpoint was hit
Guess what?! Yes, Visual Studio 2010 was immediately stepping into the source file of the C# Library Project! Sweet!
I remember that it took me some time to get this working for TFS2008!
When you create a new Build Definition with TFS2010, the Index Sources option is set to true by default and this will make sure that source indexing is part of the build.
I took a peek into the DefaultTemplate.xaml file in the BuildProcessTemplates folder and found out that the Index Sources and Publish activity is indeed completely baked in! I love it already!
