Buenas,
Remember, whenever you think that a version of Visual Studio + Team Foundation already has everything you need, will approach a client with a question that breaks you schemes. In this case, the question is irrelevant, what matters is the response:
The solution is to use the Protocol VSTFS (vstfs: / /…)
This feature exists from a couple of versions ago and basically allowing is to access an element of TFS directly when you open Visual Studio. A clear example of this functionality can see you on the homepage of Team Foundation Service in the option “Open new instance of Visual Studio”
This link syntax is as follows
do vstfs: / / / Framework/TeamProject/< Tool Id >? url = https % 3a % 2f % 2f < user Id >.visualstudio.com%2fDefaultCollection
This action opens a new instance of the IDE and directly connects to the TP. Using VSTFS protocol syntax, we can also do many more actions, for example
- Open a WorkItem
- Access to Source Control in a particular file
- etc
All available actions are processed using the Linking Service TFS. The LS is a service that basically allows from unique identifier for an item in TFS, the URI complete to access it. And if not starting from a URI, to know the id of the device that represents the same.
So now you know, if for some strange reason, you need the IDE Help opening in certain elements, Linking Service together with the Protocol VSTFS may you help.
