Powerbuilder 2017 with Team Foundation Server

How can I implement TFS in Powerbuilder 2017 ?? Do i need VisualStudio?

The goal is to use TFS for version control

Solution

  • Steps in brief

    1. Setup the team explorer 2013 (use this link if you do not have visual studio subscription to download team explorer 2013 ) in the machine you are running PowerBuilder to get the TFS connectivity capability to your machine. You do not need to install Visual Studio.
    2. Install MSSCCI provider in the machine to allow power builder to access TFS version control
    3. Create a team project in team foundation server
    4. Connect Power Builder workspace to TFS by going to Properties of workspace and source control. Set the TFS as source control and provide the credentials to connect.
