Upgrading TFS 2008 to TFS 2012
G'day Folks, I am researching what is required to upgrade / migrate TFS 2008 to TFS 2012. I note that TFS 2012 can only be installed on a 64 bit OS , so if you are on a 32 bit OS you cannot do an in-place upgrade, you need to migrate. This is for a local government authority, and there is a mix of project types in the current TFS 2008 repository from WPF, ASP.Net, Wiforms, VB.NET C#, VS2005, VS2008, and VS2010 format. I am wanting to find out if anyone else has gone down this path and what the experience has been like.

Thanks Clint. Did you install TFS on server 2008 or server 2012?

Some of the point of hand we had included - Issue in the process template were nothing would list in the assigned to field, had to manually edit the work item templates, this may have been due to the template coming initially from tfs 2005 (we had upgraded once before) - The build agent couldn’t be installed on XP, and I had existing build servers for building vb6 assets. Had to move to win7, and get vb6 working there, which is not trivial - I upgraded away from the xml based build process, to the new workflow build process, has issues replicating some custom build activities needed for my vb6 assets. Had to compromise on a couple points there. Can’t think of anything else right now, it’s been a slow gradual process for me, done in-between other tasks.

RE: VB6 calling modal .net dialog
It would be quicker to re-write the pop up form in VB6, and add the .net database layer logic as dll with a com wrapper, if there is one, or just implement some ado in vb6 for the database stuff. Or we-write the vb6 stuff in .net :) > From: bill.mccarthy.li...@live.com.au > To: ozdotnet@ozdotnet.com > Subject: RE: VB6 calling modal .net dialog > Date: Wed, 14 Dec 2011 13:49:33 +1100 > > In VB6 the main window handle is actually a hidden window, so you'd need to > get the form's handle > > |-Original Message- > |From: ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com [mailto:ozdotnet- > |boun...@ozdotnet.com] On Behalf Of Greg Keogh > |Sent: Wednesday, 14 December 2011 11:39 AM > |To: 'ozDotNet' > |Subject: RE: VB6 calling modal .net dialog > | > |Matt, I tried something similar with an nunit test, like this: > | > | > | > |IntPtr hwnd = > |System.Diagnostics.Process.GetCurrentProcess().MainWindowHandle; > | > |var win = new NativeWindow(); > | > |win.AssignHandle(hwnd); > | > |var picker = new MyPicker(); > | > |var result = picker.ShowDialog(win); > | > | > | > |I was hoping that this would set the nunit app window to be the owner of > the > |ShowDialog, but sadly two things go wrong: (1) It's not modal, but that > might be > |a quirk with using the nunit window (2) The dialog doesn't appear in the > |CenterParent position, it goes to screen top-left. > | > | > | > |Greg > | > | > >
