function Get-TfsShelvesetItems
{
    [CmdletBinding()]
    param
    (
        [string] $ShelvesetName = $(throw "-ShelvesetName must be specified."),
        [string] $ShelvesetOwner = "$env:USERDOMAIN\$env:USERNAME",
        [string] $ServerUri = $(throw "-ServerUri must be specified."),
        [string] $Collection = $(throw "-Collection must be specified.")
    )

    $getShelvesetItemsClassDefinition = @'
    public IEnumerable GetShelvesetItems(string shelvesetName, string shelvesetOwner, string tfsUriString, string tfsCollectionName)
    {
        Uri tfsUri = new Uri(tfsUriString);
        TfsConfigurationServer configurationServer = TfsConfigurationServerFactory.GetConfigurationServer(tfsUri);
        ReadOnlyCollection collectionNodes = configurationServer.CatalogNode.QueryChildren( new[] { CatalogResourceTypes.ProjectCollection }, false, CatalogQueryOptions.None);
        CatalogNode collectionNode = collectionNodes.Where(node => node.Resource.DisplayName == tfsCollectionName).SingleOrDefault();
        Guid collectionId = new Guid(collectionNode.Resource.Properties["InstanceId"]);
        TfsTeamProjectCollection teamProjectCollection = configurationServer.GetTeamProjectCollection(collectionId);
        var vcServer = teamProjectCollection.GetService();
        var changes = new List();
        foreach (Shelveset shelveset in vcServer.QueryShelvesets(shelvesetName, shelvesetOwner))
        {
            foreach (PendingSet set in vcServer.QueryShelvedChanges(shelveset))
            {
                foreach ( PendingChange change in set.PendingChanges )
                {
                    changes.Add(change);
