MDG Intgartion and TFS 2008

[DProcess]

Hi,
just tried using your MDG Integration in conjuction with EA and TFS 2008.

Selected a Requirement in my EA File -> Context Menu -> Add-Ins -> Visual Studio -> Team Foundation Server...
But all items ( Import Work-Item, Synchronize with tfs etc.)  are disabled...

Is that a known bug? Or what am I doing wrong?

Btw.. The checkin of EA packages etc. works (after I updatet to your latest release). I am using your most current versions of EA and MDG Integration..

Any help/hint is greatly appreciated,
Thanks in advance
Martin

A long shot here, but perhaps EA is not displaying current information. Try rebuilding the EA project at that point.

I used to have something similar happen, but that was a much earlier integration product. Sometimes EA would not enable things until it had reassured itself that it was up to date. The synchronize process seemed to require a rebuild at the EA end of things.

Hi David,
unfortunately this doesn´t help. I took a complete new file and just added 1 requirement... No sucess....

Btw pressing "View project connections" also don´t do anything...

I wish I could think of anything else, but that was all that came to mind.

Anyone have recent and relevant experience here?

I'm having the same issue. Actually, the exact same issue.

Have either of you sent a bug report to Sparx? If not, use the Report a Bug link below the Support link near the bottom of any forum page.

Remember to include all the version (including service pack) and configuration information about TFS and any other non-EA software involved.

If you hear back from Sparx please post back to this thread to keep the rest of us in the loop.

I have the exact same problem.

In the VS2008 after the integration the items appear enabled... but it really doesn't help there .

Hi!

Probably the same issue. I've installed the latest version of Enterprise Architect (7.1.832) and MDG Integration (3.5.2) to integrate them with my Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and TFS 2008 SP1, but I have a problem:
After adding a model to a solution, I view throw it in EA Project Explorer, but when I right-click on some package and select anything from Team Foundation Server menu - nothing  happens or VS crashes with such exception:

Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)

And when I view the model directly in Enterprise Architect (Add-in -> Visual Studio -> Team Foundation Server) - all items are disabled there.

We've also explored that everything works fine if you use Visual Studio 2005 and Team Foundation Explorer 2005 with TFS 2008.

May be the problem is in using Team Foundation Server assemblies by MDG Integration (Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client, Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client and Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Controls
) - VSIntegrateTS.dll references to the version 8.0.0.0 of this assemblies (TFS2005), not 9.0.0.0 (TFS2008)?

[ch1040]ny solutions?

[alesliehughes]

The MDG incorrectly detected what version of Visual studio and TFS was installed.

This is Temporary workaround. (assumes you dont have VS 2005 installed)

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0
and check for key "InstallDir".
 
If it empty,
try placing placing the same value that is found in
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\InstallDir
