Remarks

More detail on work item types can be found in Customize work tracking objects to support your team's processes. The XML schema for a work item type is described in Work item tracking: Index to XML element definitions.

Each WorkItem contains a reference to the WorkItemType that it implements. You must specify a WorkItemType when you construct a WorkItem through: WorkItem.WorkItem(WorkItemType). You can get the WorkItemType of a WorkItem through the WorkItem.Type property.

You can determine the rules that govern the fields of this work item type by exporting the work item type definition to XML and parsing the XML.

For more information about using this type, see Create a Work Item By Using the Client Object Model for Team Foundation.
