Finding IterationID in TFS

Question

we are linking Iterations within TFS to an external system for tracking projects through the entire company. In the past, we were linking using the IterationPath in a TFS Pr

Answer 1

OK - after some further digging, found the code below that iterates thru all the iterations, so using a subset of this, I will get what I needed :)

using System;
using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client;
using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client;

namespace TFSIterationList
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string tfsServer = "tfs";
            string tfsProject = "Project Name";
            TeamFoundationServer tfs = TeamFoundationServerFactory.GetServer(tfsServer);
            WorkItemStore store = new WorkItemStore(tfsServer);
            PrintTreeNodeCount(store, tfsProject);
        }


        private static void PrintTreeNodeCount(WorkItemStore store, string tfsProject)
        {
            int iterationNodeCount = 0;
            NodeCollection rootNodeCollection = store.Projects[tfsProject].IterationRootNodes;
            GetChildNodeCount(rootNodeCollection, ref iterationNodeCount);
            Console.WriteLine(tfsProject + " Iteration nodes : " + iterationNodeCount);
         }

        private static void GetChildNodeCount(NodeCollection nodeCollection, ref int nodeCount)
        {
            nodeCount += nodeCollection.Count;
            for (int i = 0; i < nodeCollection.Count; i++)
            {

                Console.WriteLine(nodeCollection[i].Id + " : " + nodeCollection[i].Path);
                // Console.WriteLine(nodeCollection[i].Name);

                if (nodeCollection[i].ChildNodes.Count > 0)
                {  
                // Recursively walk through the child nodes
                    GetChildNodeCount(nodeCollection[i].ChildNodes, ref nodeCount);
                }
            }
        }

    }
}
