Providing TFS access to a 3rd party program

May 23, 2015

i have task provide plug-in 3rd party application allow users access tfs.

the current task guidance utilized msscci provider , code in vs 2006 c++ tfs 2008.

having never done tfs have been searching msdn , wider web sample/demos - closest have come code stub, not show actual calls msscci , required setup successful calls provider. coming conclusion msscci black box.

anyway, asking possible solutions either accomplish task stated or can present justify changing specs in order have 3rd party interface (even if coded version of tfs or using version of c (a later version of c++ or using c#, etc)).

thank any, , all, suggestions or pointers!
