Add support to incorrect query

New Post: Free-text search

johnnyjob — Fri, 29 Jun 2012 15:44:58 GMT

Team Web Access (TWA) has a very powerful feature: it allows to search workitems using free-text queries. It also allows to narrow your search by some metadata (similar to SharePoint search).

Example: the following query will return all bugs containing word "navigation"
navigation T:Bug

Unfortunately TWA runs a free-text query only against a limited number of properties (Title and Description if I not mistaken). It doesn't include History field, and the worst thing is that this set of properties cannot be configured.

I suggest to implement similar feature in Fissum, but with ability to configure set of properties included into free-text search. I can take care of development if you add me to the project.

I did try the double click, and it worked fine, but I had to find the work item first.

So, yes, the goto I am looking for is a very simple task (much like the goto line in source code). Present the user with a dialog with a textbox. In the textbox the user enters the Work Item ID and clicks OK. Then if that work item exists, its window is opened. Otherwise an exception message is displayed to the user.

I implemented this by looping through the Work Items in the All Items query and doing a match on WorkItem ID. But I thought a more efficient way might be to dynamically generate a TFS query that had the WorkItemID as part of the "WHERE" clause.

I downloaded and compiled the latest source code (Main) and don't see this dialog. How can I start it?

Commented Issue: TFS server is reported as offline even when reachable through VS2010 [31895]

johnnyjob — Fri, 29 Jun 2012 15:15:25 GMT

The TFS Server I use is listed in the Fissum menu, but is marked as offline, even though it's open in VS2010. I choose Connect, but that does not work. I've tried both the ClickOnce and Standalone install.
Comments: ** Comment from web user: johnnyjob **

I had similar problem. I downloaded sources and started a debug session. It turned out that my TFS server has some queries which don't work, and these queries throw the following exception even if you run them via Team Explorer:
TF51011: The node specified is not found in the classification hierarchy. The error is caused by "path_to_your_query".

Obviously a work-around to this issue is to make all queries in all team projects in your TFS runnable.

I also can commit a fix which just removes queries which don't work from Fissum UI.

Which TFS version are you using and which Visual Studio version are you using (incl service pack version)?

Fissum 1.0 should work with TFS 2010 and VS2010. Fissum 1.0.1 was compiled against the 2010 SP1 version.

New Post: associate changesets with releases?

yajiya — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 02:45:49 GMT

Hi, is there any plans to associate changsets with releases.

I think it will be useful if anyone want to check out the source code of a certain edition.

I come to this just because I want some features that fissum don't have for now.

1) cant order or group work items;

2) want to get notification if any item is assigned to me;

3) capability to collapse the "group by" region.

What is Fissum ?

Fissum is a TFS Client. Fissum provides a direct access to your work items without opening the team explorer. Click here to see some Screenshots.

Anouncements

Jun 5th: Fissum 1.0.1 released: bug fixes and codeplex deployment.

Jan 24th, 2011: Fissum 1.0 (VS 2010) released. This version targets VS 2010 only.

July 15, 2009 Fissum 0.8 (VS 2005-2008) released.

There is a version for Visual Studio 2010 beta 1, this version does not use the functionnalies provided by the new Work Item API such as hierarchy.
This version introduce a sequence diagram for each work item to see how the work item changes from this creation:

You can group with any field with allowed values:

See the release description for more information

June 10, 2008 Fissum 0.7 released.
January 09, 2008 Fissum 0.6 Alpha released.

This version needs the .net framework 3.5. It is based on the workitem API of visual studio 2005. In the next version, Fissum will support both Visual Studio 2005 and 2008.

Several new features:

Go to worktitem feature: just double-click on the icon of fissum. This window gives you an access to a "Quick goto" window. This is a small "always on top" window used to enter workitem ids.
Workitem model: you can save locked fields into a work item model, this model is a kind of prefilled workitem. The model appears in the project menu and it can be deleted in the project configuration window
workitem history: this is an experimental but functionnal feature: a history button is accessible in the work item form. The history window shows how the work item looked like in the previous version of the work item. This is a very cool functionnality to analyse a work item.

August 20, 2007, Fissum 0.5.1 Alpha released.

This is a maintenance release to fix the 64bit crash on the last version and other minor bugs.

August 10, 2007: Fissum 0.5 Alpha released with two new features:

Team site access:

Work Item bulk creation tools in the Work Item Form:

April 15, 2007: Fissum 0.4 Alpha released. This is a screenshot of the new Work Item explorer:

Feb 23, 2007: Fissum 0.3 Alpha released

Jan 9, 2007: Fissum 0.2 Alpha released

Dec 25, 2006: Fissum 0.1 Alpha released
