Hallo Aaron,

very intersting. But how can I write a "real" activity? I mean an activity that consits of pure code. I tried to create a wf library with a class inheried from System.Activitites.NativeActivity but I didn't find a way to make this custom activity available in the build process editor. Can you give me some hint? Searching MSDN library for this topic was not successfull.

Best regards,

Mark

I'm hoping to extend the current build process for a variety of tasks (i.e. add a special work item upon successful completion of a build) to TFS 2010 builds. So far, I have hit issues stumbling through implementing my changes in the workflow designer. Do you have further documentation on how to extend the 2010 build process using WF designer and through custom-coded activities?

Any and all help is appreciated.
