A couple days ago, I decided it was time to move my CLB.DatabaseUpgrade Library from this website over to Codeplex. Before I get too far you can get to the project by clicking here. Let me start off by saying that the move to Codeplex was surprisingly easy. Yes, this is a small project. However, I didn’t simply copy over the executable download and source download, I moved the project into Codeplex source control. I was very pleased to find out that source control in Codeplex is actually done using Team Foundation Server (TFS). Since, I’m at home in Visual Studio and TFS this is great. Codeplex also supports source control in Subversion and Mercurial. It allows the project creator to choose TFS/Subversion or Mercurial.
Anyways, it took me less than an hour, from never having a project there to having the opening page, documentation, release ready for download and source code imported. Now that I have the project moved over to Codeplex, maybe I can create interfaces for other databases such as Microsoft SQL Compact Edition. Hopefully, I’ll hear feedback on whether this library is useful to other developers.
