Can Borland StarTeam 2008 Release R2 be integrated with Jenkins - jenkins

I am wondering if Borland StarTeam 2008 Release R2 can be integrated with Jenkins. Or do i need to upgrade StarTeam. If yes, please let me know where can i find the integration instructions. Thank you.

Borland developed a StarTeam plugin for Jenkins back in 2007. Until 2013, the plugin was community-maintained, so you can find the source code in GitHub and the .hpi files in Jenkins plugins page. Probably most of those versions will work seamlessly with StarTeam 2008 R2.
Since version 0.7.2, released in June 2015, they decided to rewrite the plugin and newer versions only work with StarTeam 14.4 or later.

SonarQube extension versions 3.x compatible with Tfs2018 on prem

We currently make use of the Tfs SonarQube extension (version 3.1.0) on an onprem Tfs2015.Update3 (14.102.25423.0)
We use the following sonar tasks in our build definitions:
Prepare the SonarQube analysis
Complete the SonarQube analysis
These all work fine.
I have now upgraded the Tfs server to Tfs2018 (version 16.122.27102.1).
To my (pleasant:- ) surprise the SonarQube extension (version 3.1.0) still works!
When I however read this link on the sonarqube site, it seems like versions 3.x should NOT be compatible with Tfs 2018.
https://docs.sonarqube.org/display/SCAN/Analyzing+with+SonarQube+Extension+for+VSTS-TFS
Versions 3.x are compatible with:
TFS 2015 Update 3
TFS 2017 Update 1
VSTS
Versions 4.x are compatible with:
TFS 2017 Update 2+
TFS 2018
VSTS
Am I missing something here?
Thanks!
The compatibility "matrix" on the VSTS/TFS documentation gives the recommended setup - i.e. what has been tested and will work for sure.
In other words, versions 3.X might be forward compatible with recent versions of TFS - but this compatibility is not tested and will probably (even certainly) be broken some day in the future.
This is why this is a very good suggestion to move to the recommended versions (here 4.x for a TS 2018+) so that:
your setup does not get broken without notice when upgrading your TFS
you benefit from all the latest new features and improvements that won't be backported to the 3.x versions.

Missing api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-0.dll when launching Delphi IDE

This message appears when I launch Delphi 2009 Enterprise. I installed Windows Updates today (Windows 7 Professional) and updated TortoiseSVN to 1.9.
An article related to a FTP server points to a required installation of Visual Studio 2015 redistributables.
Also related: Win 7, 64 bit, dll problems
Did anybody experience the same and found a fix?
Installed experts:
* GExperts
* IDEFixpack
* DDevextensions
If you have installed the new TortoiseSVN 1.9 then it may be the cause. It requires the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015. This is mentioned on the Tortoise 1.9 download page under Missing DLLs.
Here is a discussion on the TortoiseSVN discussion forum.

Can an upgraded 2012 Build Template be used with older TFS server

I have upgraded my project that hast the Build Template to use 2012 (11.00 assemblies) and upgraded it to use .NET framework 4.5. I have also upgraded the Custom Activities project to use version 4.5 framework and use 11.00 assemblies.
I have several questions regarding this can i use this upgraded template with TFS 2010? At the moment our server which has TFS 2010 installed hasn't been upgraded to TFS 2012.
Also the custom activities that I use in the upgraded template, they look grey. Is this normal?
Custom Activities should match with the version of Team Foundation Build Services. As you are using TFS 2010 build services, it will throw errors for the custom activities compiled with 11.0 version.

Configure Visual Studio 2013 to use TFS and not GIT

I have been using TFS quite happily the last few months, and all of a sudden my project is now using GIT.
I think it was after I installed the Eclips TFS plugin for android development.
How can I change it back to use TFS as my source control.
When I click on Team Explorer now it is git.
IIRC see Tools / Options / Version control and select the default version control plugin.

Installing Rad Studio 2007 and Rad Studio 2010 in same machine

I want to install Rad Studio 2010 on a machine that already has installed Rad Studio 2007,
There is some compatibility problem?
thanks in advance, Bye.
See this answer from Nick Hodges.
There is no problem with installing a newer version of Delphi/RAD Studio on a machine that has an older version. As Mason says, the reverse is not necessarily true.
Trying to install an older version of Delphi when a newer version already exists can cause problems. If you have to have both, either put 2007 in a VM or uninstall 2010 and then install the two Delphis in order, which will work just fine.
