TFS 2010 build agent workspace and using this in FB

Hi,

When the TFS build agent runs a build it creates/uses a workspace with the working folder(s) you specify in the build definition. I am wondering how I can get/use this same workspace in my FB script...

I am no expert with the concept of Team System workspaces, but as I understand it you cannot create a workspace that points to the same folders as another workspace. Thus I would like to use the workspace created by the TFS build agent for the various TFS actions in FB .

Is this somehow possible?

 

Cheers, Lars

Hi Lars

Please see the Test Build Post by Ben earlier today, this build does just that, I don’t know the specifics, but I do know Ben was working on it all day( I could tell because he was muttering to himself a lot today, he usually does that when working on TFS

Hi Vincent,

I know he was busy with TFS and I was very happy about it since he implemented my suggestions .

 

Cheers,  Lars

In the land of TFS, not much makes sense :slight_smile:

I haven’t tried this yet (so I could be very wrong) but you should just be able to use the working directory passed from TFS in the Check Out action. If that doesn’t work let me know and I’ll look at it more closely.
