Hello,

I wish to utilize the new gated check-in function of TFS 2010.

I have about 10 solutions, that all share as a dependency a proprietary shared-code library.

My structure is:

TeamProj/SharedCode
TeamProj/Proj1
TeamProj/Proj2
TeamProj/Proj3
........

The question I have is, how can I set-off an integration of ALL projects that have the SharedCode project as a dependency?

It's possible someone can make breaking changes, and not be aware of it until one of the other projects is opened/built manually.

I want to only trigger a big integration build when check-ins are made against the SharedCode folder.

The problem is, if I map the source-paths required to actually run the builds for the other projects, check-ins are picked-up automatically against all THOSE projects too.

How can I have a gated-checkin controlled folder that is independent to the source actually required to run a build?

Cheers, Dave
