Do we have install VS2005 compulsorily for using MSSCCI provider

hi,

I would like to know if its neccessary to have VS2005 installed to use MSSCCI provider to explore source control operations in Visual studio .net 2003 and VS 6.0.

Thanks in advance

Hello,

the requirements of the TFS Msscci Provider are:

1) Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
2) Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team Explorer

So, just to expand. You need to install Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team Explorer. This is on the Team Foundation Server media. If you don't have Visual Studio 2005 installed on the machine already, then it will install a Visual Studio 2005 shell and install the Team Explorer into it. This will allow you to add / edit work items etc (which you cannot do with the MSSCCI provider alone)

Also, Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2003 happily run side by side.

Hope that helps,

Martin.
