SharePoint SDKs (and Other Documentation Resources) Now Updated for SP1

  • Article

By now you’ve no doubt heard that SP1 for Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, Office SharePoint Server 2007, and Office SharePoint Designer are now available. (And if you haven’t heard, go here to get all the important details before you download and install the Service Packs.)

For a complete listing of the documentation available for SharePoint SP1, check out the What’s New in SharePoint Server 2007 Service Pack 1 page on MSDN, which includes information resources for both WSS and MOSS SP1.

I’m happy to announce that as part of the SP1 push, we’ve again updated the WSS and MOSS SDKs on MSDN:

· Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 SDK (December 2007 Refresh)

· Office SharePoint Server 2007 SDK (December 2007 Refresh)

Here’s a quick run-down of additions and updates we’ve made to the WSS SDK:

New and Updated Material in the Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 SP1 SDK

New conceptual sections and topics that detail new features in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 SP1 include:

· ASP.NET AJAX in Windows SharePoint Services

This section provides overview information, installation instructions, and programming examples that introduce you to how Microsoft ASP.NET AJAX interacts with Web Parts. Topics include:

Other new conceptual sections and topics include:

The section discusses how to use the Workflow Actions schema to create and deploy custom workflow actions. The section includes reference topics for each of the 14 elements in the schema, as well as an example .ACTIONS file:

· Alerts in Windows SharePoint Services

This section provides 8 new topics of overview information and programming tasks to help you work with Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Alerts.

Significantly revised sections and topics include:

· Custom Field Types

This section has been expanded with nine new topics, including the following new walkthrough:

In addition, reference material for all base field-rendering control types, and most derived types, in Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls has been expanded.

Several topics have been expanded.

· All types in the Microsoft.SharePoint namespace that connected to auditing are now fully documented.

This update also includes numerous other updates and revisions to existing SDK content.
