Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client Namespace

The Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client namespace provides the APIs that are required to enable a client computer or application to work with user stories, requirements, tasks, bugs, and other types of work items.

The WorkItemStore represents the connection to the repository of work items on Visual Studio Team Foundation Server. The WorkItem object contains Fields that store data, Attachments that represent files, and WorkItemLinks that connect to other work items. The following example code demonstrates how to access a “User Story” work item type on a work item store.

// Connect to the server and the store, and get the WorkItemType object
// for user stories from the team project where the user story will be created. 
Uri collectionUri = (args.Length < 1) new Uri("http://server:port/vdir/DefaultCollection") : new Uri(args[0]);
TfsTeamProjectCollection tpc = new TfsTeamProjectCollection(collectionUri);
WorkItemStore workItemStore = tpc.GetService<WorkItemStore>();
Project teamProject = workItemStore.Projects["DinnerNow"];
WorkItemType workItemType = teamProject.WorkItemTypes["User Story"];

The Query class represents a query to the WorkItemStore. An executed query returns a WorkItemCollection, which contains the work items that satisfy the query.

The WorkItemType class defines a work item. The FieldDefinition class defines a field in a work item. The WorkItemLinkType class defines a WorkItemLink, which links two work items.

You can find the Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client namespace in \Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\ReferenceAssemblies\v2.0 on computers where Team Explorer is installed, in the following assembly:

  • Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client.dll
