How to use Microsoft converters

I have found reach set of converters in Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls.WPF.Converters, but i don't know how to use them in xaml. Particularly, i don't how to include this namespace into xaml. Maybe it is only allowed to use it in code?

List of converters

I tried 

xmlns:conv="clr-namespace:Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls.WPF.Converters;assembly=Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls"

and then 

<conv:NullToVisibleConverter x:Key="Null2VisConv"/>

but it can't find NullToVisibleConverter in conv.

Please make sure that have these pkgs installed. You must add reference to dll in your project.

MSDN says: You can find the assemblies in the client object model in Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE under ReferenceAssemblies\v2.0, ReferenceAssemblies\v4.5, and PrivateAssemblies.

After thar you write in your xaml for example:

xmlns:converters="namespace for converters"

you can choose namespace for converters from the list of namespace you have on your pc

First you need to target .NET 4.5, then add reference to Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls (should be in Assembilies -> Extensions) and then in XAML, as you did

<Window ...
        xmlns:conv="clr-namespace:Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls.WPF.Converters;assembly=Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls">
    <Window.Resources>
        <conv:NullToVisibleConverter x:Key="Null2VisConv"/>
    </Window.Resources>
    <!-- ... -->
</Window>
