Use codeplex to manage WP7 Project Development versions

This article describes how to register a codeplex Website user, create a codeplex project, use TFS to connect to codeplex, add the WP7 project to TFS, and add users to operate on the WP7 project, control the development version of The WP7 project.

This method can save the cost of building a TFS server for our individual or small team, but for codeplex users, if the project we create is not released, it can only take 30 days, that is to say, when codeplex is used, make sure that the development cycle of the WP7 project is preferably within one month.

1. How to register a codeplex Website user

Open the codeplex website and click Register.

Register the user, and then log in.

2. How to Create a codeplex Project

After activating and logging on to the created account, click create a new project.

Pay special attention to the following points:

Titles: The project name displayed in codeplex; Source Controls: here we use Team Explorer.

Click NEXT until Finish.

After creating a project, go to the project page.

Click Source Code.

Click Visual Studio Team Explorer.

Server Name: TFS connection address; Username: After the WP7 project is successfully connected, the login Name and Password are used to log on to the website.

3. Use TFS to connect to codeplex

Open VisualStudio2010.

Connect to TFS.

Select Server ==> add. Enter the ServerName of the codeplex project in the TFS name, select HTTPS, generate the preview address automatically, and click OK.

Enter the UserName and password.

Select the team project set, select the project name created in codeplex on the right, and click Connect.

In this way, we use TFS to successfully connect to codeplex.

For more information about this operation, see the official codeplex documentation, Connect to TFS with Team Explorer 2010.

4. Add the WP7 project to TFS.

Add the solution to source code management, select a project in TFS, and connect. After the connection is successful, we can see the managed WP7 project on the homepage of the codeplex website's own account.

Codeplex displays detailed records of each operation on the project.

5. Add users to operate WP7 Projects

Assume that three members of our team need to use the project for development. One of them creates a project in codeplex and the other two are connected to codeplex. Then the other two users also need to register the codeplex website account.

UserName: Enter the UserName in codeplex; Role: Assign the user's responsibilities.

In this way, we have successfully added multiple users to use the WP7 project at the same time.

Other developers in the team need to log on to their own accounts, view their connected projects, and finally download WP7 from codeplex.

Download the project to your local device. Open the project and connect to TFS with the aspect described above.

This completes the control of using codeplex to manage WP7 Development versions.
