No build notifications with VS 2015?
We used to set up our dev machines to receive build notifications in the task bar.
However, the process we've followed - as per this description - doesn't apply any more with Visual Studio 2015 as the Build Notification app is no longer part of the package?
Any ideas what happened to it? Replacements? Work-arounds?
Update 4/2016:
Nothing appears to have changed with Update 2 - new build definitions still don't show up..
Answer
The BuildNotificationApp is still a part of the VS 2015 and can be found here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\IDE\BuildNotificationApp.exe. However, it looks like only XAML build definitions are visible to this tool.
The new vNext features can be accessed via the new REST API. I failed to find the explicit confirmation from the official source, but most likely the app was not made compliant with this new approach.
Basically, you have the mail notifications as the only option. Make sure the mail server settings are configured properly for the application tier, and create the appropriate email alert.
