Writing the TFS job

So, as mentioned, we are going to need a class that inherits from ITeamFoundationJobExtension.

Let's create a class called TfsCommentsToChangeSetLinksJob and inherit from ITeamFoundationJobExtension. As part of this, we will need to implement the Run method, which is part of an interface, like this:

public class TfsCommentsToChangeSetLinksJob : ITeamFoundationJobExtension
{
  public TeamFoundationJobExecutionResult Run(
      TeamFoundationRequestContext requestContext,
      TeamFoundationJobDefinition jobDefinition,
      DateTime queueTime, out string resultMessage)
  {
    throw new NotImplementedException();
  }
}

Then, we also add the using statement:

using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Server;

Now, for this specific extension, we'll need to add references to the following:

• Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client.dll

• Microsoft.TeamFoundation.VersionControl.Client.dll

• Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client.dll

All of these can be found in C:\Program Files\Microsoft...
