Answer 1

Hi Dileep,

Thanks for your post!

Do you mean you want to get the folder list and and the project list under particular solution under Source Control Explorer?

If yes, it can be implement using TFS API. In the following blog, which starts of how to use VersionControlServer class in TFS API to map the Source Control. Please refer to http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/shair/archive/2009/02/26/tfs-api-part-16-mapping-source-control-using-versioncontrolserver.aspx

Hope it helps!

Hi Dileep,

What version of TFS are you using?

Looks like you can use the ListAllProjects method (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/tfs/microsoft.teamfoundation.integration.server.classification.listallprojects(v=vs.110).aspx) .

See these examples:

See the ListAllProjects example to display projects in this link:

Answer 8

Cathy's reply has already provided an answer for this I think. If you want to programmatically get a list of folders (projects, solutions, etc.) in TFS Source Control, that blog post and the sample code associated with it will do what you want:

http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/shair/archive/2009/02/26/tfs-api-part-16-mapping-source-control-using-versioncontrolserver.aspx

You will need to re-work the sample to fit your specific needs of course, but it should provide a good starting point.

If this does not address your specific request, please try once more to explain exactly what you want, and include a screen shot if you can.

The following code will help to get the folder Name :

ICommonStructureService structureService = (ICommonStructureService)Tfscollection.GetService(typeof(ICommonStructureService));
            ProjectInfo[] projects = structureService.ListAllProjects();
            //combo_projects.ItemsSource = projects;
            ////Create VersionControlServer object from TFS
            //sourceControl = (VersionControlServer)tfs.GetService(typeof(VersionControlServer));
            RecursionType recursion = RecursionType.OneLevel;
            Item[] items = null;
            string path = "$/" + projects[0].Name;//"$/TescoPOC/FetchStoryfromTFS";
            ItemSet itemSet = versionControl.GetItems(path, recursion);
            items = itemSet.Items;
            //Dictionary<string, int> FolderListName = new Dictionary<string, int>();
            List<string> FolderListName = new List<string>();
            foreach (Item keyItem in items)
            {
                char[] charSeparators = new char[] { '/' };
                //Using split to isolated the Project Name and the File Name
                string[] ss = keyItem.ServerItem.Split(charSeparators, StringSplitOptions.None);
                if (keyItem != items[0])
                {
                    string filename = keyItem.ServerItem.Replace(path + "/", string.Empty);
                    if (filename != "BuildProcessTemplates")
                    {
                        FolderListName.Add(filename);
                        //if (FolderListName.ContainsKey(filename))
                        //    FolderListName[filename] = FolderListName[filename] + 1;
                        //else
                        //    FolderListName.Add(filename, 1);
                    }
                }
            }
