将TFS签入策略升级到VS2015的问题

Question

I have two policies that works with VS2013. I wanted to make those policies work with VS2015, but can't find the TFS API libraries for VS2015. I tried adding this

"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\\Common7\\IDE\\ReferenceAssemblies\\v2.0\\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.VersionControl.Client.dll"

as a reference to my Policy projects and it compiled fine. When I try to register them, one of them worked, other one didn't. I get the exception below:

Internal error in [MyPolicy]. Error loading the [MyPolicy] policy (The policy assembly 'MyPolicy, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' is not registered.). Installation instructions: Please see the web based installation instructions.

Why the first policy got regsitered fine, but not the second one? Someone know the issue?

Answer 1

You've tried referencing a VS2013 assembly (v12.0). You need to reference VS2015 assemblies (v14.0) at "%CommonProgramFiles%\\microsoft shared\\Team Foundation Server\\14.0"
