check-tfspolicies.ps1 - sanity check your checkin policy types

I thought I would have done something more significant for my 100th blog post. Ah, well, maybe for the 200th.

I was coding an example checkin policy from scratch last night (1am insomnia, and I had already caught up on my TiVo'd Colbert Report episodes) and had screwed up something in the authoring.  I had registered the dll fine, but it wasn't showing up when I went to Add a new policy to a team project.  Unfortunately, the V1 code doesn't give you any feedback about why your assembly (well, the policies within it) don't show up.

Rather than do the checks manually, I decided it was a good opportunity to write a dorky little script that will do it for me.

It's a quick-and-dirty approach, especially as it's the kind of thing I don't expect people (myself or others) to need to run very often.

  • It doesn't hook assembly resolve, so any dependent assemblies (besides WinForms or VersionControl.Client) will need to already be loaded before running it
  • It doesn't use the ReflectionOnly* api's currently, mainly because of IsAssignableFrom behavior when one of the types is loaded through ReflectionOnly but the other isn't (and the current/default app domain may already have VersionControl.Client loaded)
  • It doesn't create and use a new app domain for the loading.

A "v2" version of the script would create a separate appdomain for the testing, use ReflectionOnly for loading, and hook assembly resolve and find/load dependent assemblies.

For the curious, I had forgotten to mark the class as Serializable.  Hey, it was 1am - give me a break!
