Setting up a Service Object Project (POS for .NET v1.14 SDK Documentation)
To begin programming your Service Object, you first need to create a new Class Library project and add the appropriate resources to your project. To create your basic project, perform the following steps.
To create a new class library project for your Service Object
Open Visual Studio. On the File menu, choose New and then choose Project to create a new project.
In the New Project dialog box, select Class Library from the Visual Studio Installed Templates list.
Choose an appropriate name for your Service Object. Note that Visual Studio creates a namespace for your project based on the name that you enter here.
To add references to Point of Service assemblies
Be sure that you have installed the Microsoft Point of Service product.
From the Solution Explorer window, right-click the References drop-down and then select Add References.
On the Browse tab, locate the Microsoft.PointOfService and Microsoft.PointOfService.ControlBase assemblies in the Program Files\Microsoft Point of Service\SDK directory.
Select both assemblies and add them to your reference list.
To add the PosAssembly global attribute to your assembly
The PosExplorer requires that Service Object assemblies contain the PosAssemblyAttribute global attribute.
From the Solution Explorer window, open and edit the file AssemblyInfo.cs.
At the top of the file, add a using directive for Microsoft.PointOfService, for example:
using Microsoft.PointOfService;
Insert the global attribute, PosAssembly, into the file. This attribute takes a single argument for the name of your organization. For example:
[assembly: PosAssembly("Your Company Name, Inc")]
