Show/Hide Directories in Source Control Explorer

Is there a way to hide/ignore the directories that I do not need in Source Control Explorer?
Thanks in advance!

hi John
no that is not possible.
what you can do is
Cload a folderwhich means it will not downloaded or compared etc.

Identify missing files in source control explorer

Is there a way to identify which files are in the workspace and not in the TFS source control solution? The "Compare" option in the "Source Control Explorer" is grayed out. Tried using the power tools
but only the Analyzer is installed. The TFPT.exe is not installed. There is a solution in Stack Overflow however none of it works. Thanks in advance.

Hi Clem,
Thanks for your post.
In Source Control Explorer, right-click on source folder path and select Add Items to Folder…, then check which file(s) list in the opened dialog and can add to source control.

Windows Explorer integration for Source Control Explorer

Hi together,
we've setupped an Online TFS to organize our Powershell Scripts in our Team. After that we've installed the Source Control Explorer for checking items in and out. From within the Source Control Explorer this works flawless.
Some time ago i've worked with TortoiseSVN for Source Control and there were a Windows Explorer Integration which was super easy to use for making new local repositorys, checkin and checkout, is there something similar for TFS? Because we only write Powershell
Scripts, we don't need Visual Studio and it would be easier to work directly in the Windows Explorer.
Thanks for any tips and tricks!
Rolf

Hi Rolf,
Thanks for your post.
You’re using VSO Account?
What’s the version of your VS? if you’re using VS 2013, you can install the
TFS 2013 Power Tools on your client. If you installed the TFS 2013 Power Tools on your VS 2013 client, after you mapped and got the source file to local workspace folder using Source Control Explorer, you can right-click on the local workspace folder and
select Team Foundation Server menu to perform check in/out.

SSIS package to load Source Control Explorer details into a table

Hi Guys,
We are maintaining our code in Source control explorer,TFS.
We have created a table in our database which will have columns like names, latest, last_checkin.
I like to read from TFS those values and load it into database.
We need to create reports based on the locations and send it to our client.
Any ideas or path i have to take in order to achieve this, will be very grateful.
Cheers!!!!!

Why would you use SSIS to read from TFS?
And then create a report?
Wrong design to my taste.
You need a lot of .Net code as you need TFS APIs used this way.
var server = RegisteredTfsConnections.GetProjectCollection(new Uri("http://hostname:8080/"));
var projects = TfsTeamProjectCollectionFactory.GetTeamProjectCollection(server);
var versionControl = (VersionControlServer)projects.GetService(typeof(VersionControlServer));
var newestDate = DateTime.MinValue;
Item newestItem = null;
var items = versionControl.GetItems("$/theproject/trunk/setup/*.msi");
foreach (var item in items.Items)
if (item.ItemType != ItemType.File)
continue;
if (item.CheckinDate > newestDate)
newestItem = item;
newestDate = item.CheckinDate;
newestItem.DownloadFile("C:\\temp\\" + Path.GetFileName(newestItem.ServerItem));
this still can be done in a Script Task, but defeats the purpose of using ETL.

How to create/add my new solution/project to Source Control at VS Online?

Hi, I'm using VS2012. I'm logged into VS online and can open the Team Explorer in VS2012. The frustrating thing is how do I add a new solution to source control? I click on the Solution Explorer, Right click on the solution, Select "Add
solution to Source Control". The a pop up dialog shows up with 3 of my Solution/projects that are there.
The problem is i don't want to put this new solution under any of the 3 solutions currently in Source Control in VS Online. I want this to be a new solution/project to be saved in the source control form the root. If I click on the Advanced button,
edit the "Source Control Folder" path to "$/MyNewSolutionName", I then get an error message saying root folder is reserved only for team project. How can I get a new solution/project to the source control? I've done it before
but it seemed to have changed.
Okay, In Source Control Explorer, I select the root, xxxx.visualstudio.com\DefaultCollection. I then select VS "File" menu and in the drop down I selected "New" and then "Team Project". It takes me to a browser and
lands at VS online. I then type in the new team project name. Everything is good so far. I now returns to my VS on my local PC, I right click either the solution or the project in that solution, select "Add solution to Source Control".
The "Add Solution... " dialog then pops up. I selected newly created Team Project, leave everything else in default and select OK and now I get a different error message saying "Fail to create mapping, cannot map server path, $/TeamProject/projectname,
becuase it is not rooted beneath a team project.
How can I fix this and just get my source into the source control? Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you

Assuming you map to yoursite.visualsualstudio.com/defaultcollection you will need to create a team project to upload your stuff. If you are trying to save to $/ that is team project collection level and you can only add team projects at that point.
you can add a new team project with the below picture
Then depending on how you have set up your workspace, and assuming locally that you are in the local workspace you can upload your project.

Setting up variable access for source control

Working on a few projects on my own I have used Team Explorer in Visual Studio Professional 2013 successfully for some time. I only use source/version control.
My default collection is hosted on visualstudio.com.
I now want to bring a second person, say Fred, who also has VS Professional, into the act in such a way that he can download but not modify my projects and I can download but not modify his.
Because all the projects are closely related, we each want to be able to quickly look at each others projects to see what has changed as well as being able to download them. I think this will be easier if all the projects are in the same collection.
Consider one of my projects, say "zxzx".
In the project control panel with the Security tab I can see:
Teams
zxzx Team
VSO Groups
Build Administrators
Contributors
Project Administrators
Project Valid Users
Readers
Under Permissions, I can see what each of these is allowed to do. "Project Administrators" and "Reader" seem relevant.
Under Members, I can see who is in each team and group.
I have myself in zxzx Team and Project Administrators, and Fred is in Readers.
When, in VS, I sign myself out and sign in as Fred. As Fred I can download all the projects and I can update them. That is not what I want.
I clearly don't understand the relationships between Collections, Projects, Teams and VSO Groups.
Help!
Thanks for any reply.

Hi Jeff,
Thanks for your post.
We can Deny the check in permission for user/group on separate folder(s)/file(s) in Source Control Explorer. In your VS>>Source Control Explorer, right-click on “zxzx” and select
Advanced>>Security…, then you can add Fred account in this opened dialog and deny his check-in permission in there.

Windows Explorer keeps crashing under Win 7 with RH7 and Source Control installed

This is an "informational" thread in case someone experiences the same problems. We installed RH7 on Windows 7 32-bit and accidentally, Robo Source Control was installed, too, although we do not use it. The latter loads three extensions into the shell that caused the Windows Explorer to crash on a regular basis ("Windows Explorer has stopped working"). After deinstallation of Robo Source, the problem seems to be resolved.

I would like to tell you that this problem is an issue with RH8, as well.

Check for Items Source Control Status in Project Explorer

Is there a way to check what items in the Project Explorer are not currently under source code control? Perhaps through property nodes? I didn't see anything that looked like it could be done this way, but I would like to know if there are items in my project that are not in source control that should be in source control.

Hi zenthoef,
I do not believe there is any way to tell which files are not currently under source code control through LabVIEW. My only thought is that you could make a call into the source code control API. However most likely the API is not open to external calls and it would depend on what source code control you are using.

Show/Hide a column in a Table region

I have search page which queries the data and displays the records in a table region. We need to have an option to show or hide a non-database column at the end of the each row in the table. If the checkbox is selected, the last column should appear and if checkbox is deselected it should get disappeared.
I have used a transient attribute in the VO and using that transient attribute trying to show the text field when the checkbox is selected. For ex, if the search returns 6 rows - if you select the checkbox of the first row , the last column "CTS" gets displayed without any issues but if you select the other rows (without checking the first row), the CTS column is not displayed.
The column is getting displayed only IF you select the checkbox of the first row and try it other rows. If you try to select the checkbox of other rows without selecting the 1st row, it doesnt show the CTS column.
AM has the PPR event
=============
public void CheckOnClick(String v_chkBox,String SalesContact,Boolean executeQuery)
System.out.println("Enters Checkbox event()");
USSContactMainVOImpl pVO= getUSSContactMainVO1();
Row poRow[]=pVO.getFilteredRows("Chkbox","Y"); // get all the selected rows
for(int i=0;i<poRow.length;i++ )
Row rowi=poRow;
System.out.println("Value:" + rowi.getAttribute("Chkbox") );
rowi.setAttribute("CTSEngineer_TR",Boolean.TRUE); // transient attr
//end of CheckOnClick()

I just referred to the Dev Guide and understand that we can use the identifier of the PPR event source row (Page 262) but still the issue persists.
String rowReference = pageContext.getParameter(OAWebBeanConstants.EVENT_SOURCE_ROW_REFERENCE);
I have a rawtext as the first column( its just a dummy column since the PPR event is not getting fired if the checkbox is the 1st control/column) and the 2nd column is the check box which has a PPR event. The PPR event fires whenever the check box is selected or deselected but surprising the text field gets editable only if the 1st row is clicked.
Changed code is as always - not sure why the table shows/hides the text column only if the 1st column is selected. Will appreciate any help.
PFR:
===
if ("OnSelect".equals(pageContext.getParameter(OAWebBeanConstants.EVENT_PARAM)))
OAApplicationModule am = pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
System.out.println("The AM name is "+am);
Boolean executeQuery = BooleanUtils.getBoolean(false);
String str1 = pageContext.getParameter("Check_Box");
String v_SalesContact = pageContext.getParameter("SalesContact_qry");
//1401
String rowReference = pageContext.getParameter(OAWebBeanConstants.EVENT_SOURCE_ROW_REFERENCE);
Serializable[] parameters = {str1,v_SalesContact,rowReference,executeQuery };//1401
Class[] paramTypes = { String.class,String.class,String.class,Boolean.class };//1401
am.invokeMethod("CheckOnClick",parameters,paramTypes);
AM(PPR Event)
==========
public void CheckOnClick(String v_chkBox,String SalesContact,String rowReference,Boolean executeQuery)
OARow rowx = (OARow)findRowByRef(rowReference);
if (rowx !=null){
System.out.println("row ref");
System.out.println("reo fref"+ rowx.getAttribute("CTSEngineer_TR") );
rowx.setAttribute("CTSEngineer_TR",Boolean.TRUE);

Show only report data in Internet explorer

Hi,
I have report which should be visualized on big screen in our physical distribution center, report works fine, problém is, that report shows also report viewer components. I disabled IE menus by F11 and also parameter panel is disabled by Show/Hide Paramteres
button.
But, there is still panel with zoom, export drop down menu, print button etc......
Do you know, how to get rid of these ?
thanks

Hi volyn,
According to your description, you have a report which works fine, when preview it in Internet explorer, you want to hide Toolbar and only show report data. If that is the case,
there can be two scenarios:
When you render report use Report Server, we can add
postfix
rc:Toolbar=false to the URL of the report as Visakh16 mentioned. In this case, please make sure the parameter has default values.
The following URL is for your reference:
http://ServerName/ReportServer?%2fReports%2f1&rs:Command=Render&rc:Toolbar=false.
When you render the report use webform reportviewer control in Web application, we can achieve your goal by setting ShowToolBar property to fasle. Please refer to the following
steps:
1. Click the ReportViewer and open ReportViewer dialog box.
2.
In Appearance section, set ShowToolBar to false.
The following screenshot is for your reference:
If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know.
Best Regards,
Wendy Fu

Visual Studio 2013 slows down + crashes when using Source Control features.

I have spent two full days trying to resolve this issue but no luck so here we go,
I have created a project using Visual Studio Team Foundation Server plug-in in the past. Later on I switched to
Microsoft Git Provider.
Now when I connect to that project in the Team Explorer and double click on the solution to work on it locally it somehow changes the plug in to Microsoft Git Provider automatically and of course I can't
Commit/Commit and Push since I receive following error in the Team Explorer,
An error occurred. Detailed message: Failed to open directory 'C:/Users/.../AppData/Local/Application Data/'
Manually changing the plug-in to the Visual Studio Team Foundation Server
results in a broken Team Explorer as below,
With Settings leading to an empty pane, and also a warning in the Team Explorer's Changes page telling me the message below if I click on Pending Changes...
Microsoft Git Provider is not the current Source Control plug-in. Change Plug-in
And manually selecting the solution from Solution Explorer, right click and
Add Solution to Source Control, leads to never ending hour glass and (Not responding) visual studio.
New Projects
Creating a new project is straight forward, unless I "Add to Source Control" is checked. If so, again never ending process if Microsoft TFS plug-in is selected in the tools and eventually me Ending the Visual Studio task. And a VERY long process
(40+ mins) if I have chosen Microsoft Git but that finishes successfully rather.
New TFS project from Team Explorer
If I create a new project in my Online Web Studio
Click on Open with Visual Studio Link => Opens and connects to a my newly created TFS in team explorer.
Clicking new in Team Explorer under Solutions to create a new solution and bind it to this Repo
leads to straight crash of Visual Studio and restarting attempt of VS.
So I really can't use Source Control from visual studio other than cloning GitHub's existing repo's on Visual Studio and Committing my current Microsoft Git managed projects.
I have attempted
Repairing Visual Studio (no luck in results)
Devenv.exe /setup (no luck)
Trying to scrap the SCC info on my solution then at least it won't get picked up by source control then I can Check it in as a new project. (no luck and the solution picks the Microsoft Git upon opening it by clicking on the .sln file.) I have followed
these steps in this stack overflow answer.
And lots of mucking around like removing my workspaces almost Thousand times and putting them back, binding and etc.
I am really stuck on this and it's holding me back from staring a new project (which is problematic using Adding to Source Control) and unfortunately is dependent on the old project (which is developed under Visual Studio Team Foundation Server Plug-in which
is throwing tantrums)
Would like to hear you pro-s input on this
Using
Visual Studio 2013 Community edition (recently switched from Pro to Express to Community)
Windows 7 (64-bit)
Git tools
Git windows installation
Nuget Package manager
Visual Studio Log File

Hi Mehradzie,
Based on the description, seems you're working with Git team project in Visual Studio Online(formerly Team Foundation Service). I'd like to know whether you mean Visual Studio Git command tool as the plug-in, and if you're trying to create solutions/projects
with Visual Studio and add them to the created Git team project.
From the screenshot, you're not connect to the Git team project by using Team Explorer. To work with Git team project locally, you can follow the instructions as below:
Connect to Git team project by using Team Explorer, after that you might install Git tools if you connect to the team project for the first time
Clone the remote Git repository to a local git repository and set the path to local git repository
Create a solution and select Git source control, also saved to the local path of the local git repository
Select your branch, and then click "Changes" and Commit the changes
Click "unsynced commits" and push the commit to remote git repository
You can also refer to the links below for more information about getting started with Git in Visual Studio Online.

My left shift key on Macbook Pro Retina (15") is behaving like the F11 key (show/hide open windows). The key behaves the same for the laptop keyboard and for an external Apple keyboard? This just started in last week after 6 months of use

My left shift key on Macbook Pro Retina (15") is behaving like the F11 key (show/hide open windows).
The left shift key behaves the same on the laptop keyboard and on an external Apple keyboard.
This just started in last week after 6 months of use. The right shift key and other keys on the keyboard all appear to work correctly.
Suggestions greatly appreciated.

I have a solution to this issue now after a discussion with Apple Support. Some where in the last few weeks, there was a change in the key that would do a Show Desktop under the Mission Control settings in the System Preferences. Even though the key sequence that was shown for the Show Desktop setting did not include the Left SHift key, by changing this first to having no key sequence and applying that and then changing it back to the F11 key, the Left SHift key issue that I was having has cleared up.
A second issue that was uncovered was that the SSD had some issues (uncovered when I ran Disk Utility using the Repair Disk key). I had to restart and use the Disk Utility through the Command R sequence to get to the stand alone Disk Utility. The SSD appears to be running better as a result as well.
Hope that this is of use to someone else in the future.

Robo v9 Show/Hide without Twisties - One button no longer working

Hey there, as stated I am using Robo v9 with Show/Hide without Twisties (One button) with javascipts. We have most of our images using DHTML drop-downs and when folks click on "Show All Images" on the page, the GIF changes to "Hide All Images" and all drop-downs (our images) and expanding text are diaplayed.
It had been working all the time, but now it only works when I right click the topic in the TOC and choose "Edit Topic", then while in the Edit Window (Display view), when I do a View (Ctrl-W) and it displays the page within RoboHelp..I can click the "Show All Images" and it works like it always had. BUT, if that page is not in the Edit Window, and I right click "Preview Topic", the click "Show All Images" (or on the DHTML dropdown itself) it will NOT show the images, *but the GIF image does properly toggle to "Hide All Images" (and if I do again, then it properly toggles to the "Show All Images" GIF, if I do it again), but now NO images are getting displayed for some reason. It also NEVER works properly when I publish to our website (even when clicking the DHTML dropdown itself), but the GIF images toggle properly.
If I right click and choose "Preview Topic" and click "View With" and use Internet Explorer 8 it still never works anymore, unless the topic is in the Edit Window (Display View), so I know the issue is not on the server. It stops working after I do a generate and run on my pc. Also when I view it IE8 within Robo (and Allow the Blocked Content to run the scripts), many instances of the same error is shown as:
Message: Access is denied.
Line: 2646
Char: 3
Code: 0
URI: file:///D:/Users/_RBH9_TPO-Generate/v9-testing/ehlpdhtm.js
...but I *do* have access to the folder system, but in checking the coding of the ehlpdhtm.js, that area show, where I believe line 2646, character 3 starts at the "values = getAttribute(element, prop );" line below...but maybe something does not exist:
==
//End HTML code invoked function
function InitEffect( element, prop )
var values = null;
if( getAttribute(element,prop))
values = getAttribute(element, prop );
else if( getAttribute( element, "currentStyle" ) && element.currentStyle.getAttribute)
values = element.currentStyle.getAttribute( prop );
else if (element.style.getAttribute)
values = element.style.getAttribute( prop );
if( !values )
return;
var functions = new Array();
==
I have a much older backup when restored, it all works properly again in all cases, but I have done so much work since then that I think would need to be manually redone. I have played with keeping those some javascipts alone (in case I changed something) and updated the rest of the data files I had added, deleted the .CPD file, but it somehow stops working again, probably with some updated file. I am not sure what specific files could be causing the negative impact that is preventing it from working. Maybe if I knew what files could impact, I couldrestore those from my old backup. The newer backups when restored do not work properly, so there was a point in time where something changed and is causing this.
All prior versions of RoboHelp (v7 and v8) have always worked and still do. I am using v9.0.1.262, as the latest version has not yet been allowed on our pcs (per security), but since my earlier backup works, I thought it may not be the issue, but wanted to tell you anyway. ;->
Any ideas on how I should proceed? What files may have impact to cause it not to work anymore? The showhide.js is the only .js to show up as a baggage file. Also, the DHTML line does exits in each html page's code, as we are still using Robo v7 as the production software and the Show/Hide always works, and I copy them into the respective Robo v9 folders (and if new, then I copy them, then import them), otherwise the newer v7 updated pages are copied over the older v9 html files while RoboHelp is closed.
Thanks in advance for any info you can provide!

I may have figured out what to fix to get v9 back to working on the Show/Hide button, but not the "why?" .
It looks to all be dealing with the Robo automatic html coding of where to locate the .js file(s)...here is a quick overview of this issue and what I did. When I view the non-working pages within Internet Explorer 8 within Robo (and Allow the Blocked Content to run the scripts), I saw many instances of the same error is shown as this in the log, which implied since I *do* have access rights, maybe the file was just not being found.
Message: Access is denied.
Line: 2646
Char: 3
Code: 0
URI: file:///D:/Users/_RBH9_TPO-Generate/v9-testing/ehlpdhtm.js
OK, here are my findings. EXAMPLE #1 and EXAMPLE #2 below are excerpts of the same file. EXAMPLE #1 is from Robo v7 and is copied to the v9 folder after it was updated so our soon to be "production" webhelp will be from Robo v9 (instead of making the same manual updates in Robo v9 as in Robo v7, I copy the updated the .html file to the Robo v9 file system). Note the direction of the directory slashes of the java scripts listed below, as they are all DOS type slashes (back slashes), EXCEPT for ehlpdhtm.js as it is the ONLY one using UNIX (forward) slashes.
EXAMPLE #1 (from Robo v7)
==
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="..\..\sty-std-topic.css">
<script type="text/javascript" language=JavaScript x-save-method=compute-relative
src="..\..\showhide.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<robohelp><script type="text/javascript" language=JavaScript1.2 src="../../ehlpdhtm.js"
x-save-method=compute-relative></script>
<script type="text/javascript" language=JavaScript1.2>

</script>
==
EXAMPLE #2(from Robo v9)
This is from the restored backup of the Robo v9 files that always work when I restore them, and note they are ALL UNIX (forward) slashes. These backup files were generated from Importing/Upgrading a copy of the Robo v7 files into Robo v9.
++
<title>[Endpoint Protection] Symantec Overview</title>
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="../../sty-std-topic.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript" src="../../showhide.js">
</script>
</head>
<body>
<?rh-script_start ?><script src="../../ehlpdhtm.js" type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
</script><?rh-script_end ?>
++
Additional info: The following is from another file from the Robo v9 backup files that always WORK and once again they are ALL UNIX (forward) slashes.
~~
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="../../sty-std-topic.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript" src="../../showhide.js">
</script>
</head>
<body>
<?rh-script_start ?><script src="../../ehlpdhtm.js" type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
</script><?rh-script_end ?>
~~
BUT since all .js files are referenced in EXAMPLE #1 have DOS slashes (back slashes), EXCEPT for the ehlpdhtm.js, I decided to change the line in ehlpdhtm.js FROM src="../../ehlpdhtm.js" TO src="..\..\ehlpdhtm.js" and IT (this one page) BEGAN WORKING AGAIN after I published. So having all DOS back slashes DOES work in Robo v9!!!! BUT it appears that Robo v9 only generates new pages using UNIX (forward) slashes in ALL coding. I've read about issues like this occurring with the FireFox browser, but we only use IE8, and have not read anything like this related to IE8 issues.
So if all UNIX forward slashes and all DOS back slashes can work in Robo v9 in finding and using ehlpdhtm.js, (the Show/Hide buttons function properly) why is this problem existing in Robo v9 when there are mixed "slashes" (using forward and backward)? ...and the mixed slashes ALWAYS works in Robo v7! They do not have to all be in the same direction in Robo v7 as it appears to have to be in the newer/more advanced Robo v9. Why does it matter that all slashes need to be all the same direction, if Robo v9 CAN actually read and figure out the DOS back slashes (formatted by Robo v7 creation) and actually generates UNIX forward slashes for the .js files in new Robo v9 output within the .html?
More importantly will I have to always do a Global search and replace in Robo v9 to change the direction of the "back slashes" when I copy updated Robo v7 .html files into the Robo v9 folders (instead of manually reworking each change), while in transition from v7 to v9?
Thanks in advance any information, recommendations, and feedback as your time is greatly appreciated!

Show PDF document in Browser (Internet Explorer)

Hi
I need to show a PDF document in Internet Explorer.
We have some static PDF documents in the application. Depending on user selection we determine the name of the PDF document and somehow we have to display in Browser.
Refer below code, steps and problem.
Step 1) I convert the PDF document to ByteArrayOutputStream using below code in a Java class and store this stream to a session variable.
File pdfFile = new File("c:\\temp.pdf");
byte[] data = new byte[(int) pdfFile.length()];
ByteArrayOutputStream byteArrayOutputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(pdfFile);
int count = 0;
while (fileInputStream.read(data) != -1)
byteArrayOutputStream.write(data, 0, count);
Step 2) After this the control is transferred to a servlet. It retrieves the stream from session variable and does following (Servelt is called such that it should open new browser window. This is OK.)
response.setHeader( "Content-disposition", "inline; filename = avb.pdf");
response.setContentType("application/pdf");
response.setBufferSize(byteArrayOutputStream.size());
response.setContentLength(byteArrayOutputStream.size());
try
     byteArrayOutputStream.writeTo(response.getOutputStream());
     response.flushBuffer();
catch (IOException e)
     //Handle execption
PROBLEM: It asks to save pdf document. But after saving I am not able to open document. It shows messge that the document is not of PDF type. But it is actually a PDF so my guess is that something is wrong in above code snippets.
Please help.
Thanks.

FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(pdfFile);
int count = 0;
while (fileInputStream.read(data) != -1)
    byteArrayOutputStream.write(data, 0, count);
}Poor unloved count variable.
