Are there any TFS plugins available for the Eclipse IDE? We are trying to centralise our SCM, and since we also develop Java 2 EE applications, we would like to have TFS integration in eclipse.

Which plugins are available? Which have you found most useful.

I heard that Microsoft may be releasing one, does anyone know about this?

I have had a look and found the reviews of Teamprise looks good, however开发者_运维百科 would like to have > 1 option!

Thanks in advance.

Option 1: Microsoft Visual Studio Team Explorer Everywhere 2010

With the launch of Visual Studio 2010 ALM Microsoft also released Microsoft Visual Studio Team Explorer Everywhere 2010 which is an Eclypse plug in.

This is fully supported by Microsoft (they bought Teamprise) and supports:

Any of the following IDEs:

Eclipse 3.0 to 3.5 on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris, AIX, or HP-UX.
IBM Rational Application Developer 6.0 to 7.5 on Windows.
IBM Rational Application Developer 7.0 to 7.5 on Linux.
Additional IDEs based on Eclipse 3.0 to 3.5 are supported including Adobe Flex Builder 3 and Aptana Studio 2.0.

Option 2: SVN Bridge

You can use the SVN Bridge to use any product that would normaly connect to SVN to connect to Team Foundation Server. Magic :)

There might not be a free plugin and this SO question reports several alternative to a direct Eclipse integration.
Otherwise, there is Teamprise:

^{(Octobre 2010)}
As Martin (mrhinsh) details in his answer (go upvote it):

Since Teamprise was aquired by Microsoft it has become Microsoft Visual Studio Team Explorer Everywhere 2010 (as mentioned by the teamprise.com page, and detailed in the Microsoft teamprise FAQ page).
It might be accessible for anyone with a MSDN licence.
(thijs confirms in the comment: "its free with an MSDN (Visual Studio Ultimate with MSDN) account")

^{(March 2012, mentioned in the comments by Buck Hodges, Development manager for Microsoft Team Foundation Server):}

The blog post "Even Better Access to Team Foundation Server" by Brian Harry MS announces:

Starting today, we are eliminating the requirement to purchase Team Explorer Everywhere separately.

Before today,

Team Explorer Everywhere users had to purchase both a Client Access License (CAL) and the Team Explorer Everywhere software,
whereas Visual Studio Team Explorer users only had to purchase a CAL – the Visual Studio Team Explorer software has always been a free download (TE 2008, TE 2010, TE 11 Beta) for users who had a license to access a TFS server.
Starting today the story is the same for Team Explorer Everywhere (TEE 2010 with SP1, TEE 11 Beta).

Team Explorer Everywhere is now a free download. Here is the official post: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bharry/archive/2012/03/08/even-better-access-to-team-foundation-server.aspx. Prior to March 8, 2012, it was not free.

You must have a client access license (CAL) for TFS, and that comes with MSDN subscriptions, for example.

Teamprise integration I found to be filled with bugs, after days of trying to get it to work with the Zend IDE 6.1, I stopped. We decided as a large corporation to not use TFS for our OS development.

To provide updated information:

The eclipse plugin update site is public available and is free!

Installation instructions are here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh301122.aspx

If you want to install stable release http://dl.microsoft.com/eclipse/tfs

If you want to install and test the preview release http://dl.microsoft.com/eclipse/tfs/preview

have a look at SvnBridge, then you can use an SVN plugin in Eclipse e.g. Subclipse (or svn command line or tortoisesvn depending on your development environemt)

Other than that you're stuck with paying MS for the TEE plugin.
