# re: Using TFS Integrator to manage complex project dependencies

Hi Roy,

Thanks for trying out TFS Integrator. Let me know if it gives you any grief. Controling which version of the code gets replicated is something that I would like to add. I'd be more likely to control it via build quality indicators so that when a particular build quality change occured it could get replicated to the dependent projects.

I might be able to add this feature simply actually since Dependency Replication is triggered when a build completes - I could just get it to also trigger when a build has its quality changed to a particular value.

Thanks Mitch.

your idea is a good one, but even if the build quality is published, some projects might still want to be able to NOT automatically use the new build version (like, say, they depend on a specific bug in the eariler versio to work correctly..)
