team explorer_Team Explorer 2017独立安装程序的退还

team explorer

The last time I wrote an article relating to Team Explorer, I used it to express my unhappiness with Microsoft’s decision to “break from the norm” and not provide us with a standalone installer for Team Explorer 2015. Such a decision affected development teams that uses Team Explorer to store, collaborate and manage SQL Server-related solutions (i.e. T-SQL scripts, SSRS, SSAS, SSIS) into TFS source control. Well, the good news is that it looks like Microsoft has finally heeded the call of bringing back the standalone installer for Team Explorer as Visual Studio 2017 (available from release 26403.00) now contains a standalone Team Explorer 2017 installer.

上次我写有关Team Explorer的文章时 ，我用它来表达对Microsoft决定“打破常规”的不满意，而不是为我们提供Team Explorer 2015的独立安装程序。 这样的决定影响了使用Team Explorer将与SQL Server相关的解决方案（即T-SQL脚本，SSRS，SSAS，SSIS）存储，协作和管理到TFS源代码管理中的开发团队。 好吧，好消息是，微软似乎终于注意到了带回Team Explorer独立安装程序的要求，因为Visual Studio 2017 （版本26403.00可用）现在包含一个独立的Team Explorer 2017安装程序。

The bad news is that Team Explorer 2017 standalone installer is no longer provided in a form of an ISO file instead you get a bootstrapper application file that does an online installation. The problem with such an installation approach is that, as per Scott Hanselman’s recent experiences of poor speed of internet connection in my country, online installation is not always the viable option for developers located in places with moderate speeds of internet connection. In such cases it is better to make an offline installation file of Team Explorer 2017 and share it across the team. In this article we take a look at various methods of installing Team Explorer 2017 as well as explore the features of Team Explorer 2017 particularly comparing it against its predecessor, Team Explorer 2015.

坏消息是，将不再以ISO文件的形式提供Team Explorer 2017独立安装程序，而是会获得进行在线安装的引导程序应用程序文件。 这种安装方式的问题在于，根据Scott Hanselman最近在我国的互联网连接速度较差的经验，对于安装在互联网连接速度中等的开发人员来说，在线安装并非总是可行的选择。 在这种情况下，最好制作Team Explorer 2017的脱机安装文件并在团队中共享。 在本文中，我们介绍了安装Team Explorer 2017的各种方法，并探讨了Team Explorer 2017的功能，特别是将其与之前的Team Explorer 2015进行了比较 。
