Restricting association to WorkItem


Arun Sathiamurthy (5675) | asked Mar 06 '12, 9:19 p.m.
Is there a way to restrict which set of files or components get associated with a WI.

This is what I intend:
For a new fix, Teamlead creates a WorkItem (Task). He should have the ability to restrict developers associating to this changeset at file level or at the least component level.

I don't think there is anything available out of the box.

I believe this would require to write a custom advisor. See https://jazz.net/library/article/784 as an entry point. This advisor would require to set information on the work item (like the component) and would have to check when associating the change set. I think we have no attribute type for work items that can refer to a stream, component or file in SCM. So I am not sure how to implement this.
