Quick update on my serie about automated build for sharepoint full trust solutions. If you take a look at the second error I’m describing hereyou will notice that you have to replace two lines in order to make it work. With update 4 it looks like Microsoft is preparing full 64 bits support for visual studio. New fix lines are now <Import Condition="'$(Language)' == 'C#'" Project="$(MSBuildExtensionsPath32)\Microsoft\Windows Workflow Foundation\v3.5\Workflow.Targets" /> <Import Condition="'$(Language)' == 'VB'" Project="$(MSBuildExtensionsPath32)\Microsoft\Windows Workflow Foundation\v3.

If you work in SharePoint development you probably already have noticed that the tools are getting a new update. With previous versions Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Search and Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Search.Applications dll’s were not included (it most likely has been forgotten) You then had two solutions: Ensure that all developers had SharePoint binaries installed on their machines Embed a copy of the dll taken from a SharePoint machine Both solutions were not very practical. These dlls are now included for version 15 and 16 located here C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\

As some of you know, this is my first year as an MVP. Next week will be the MVP summit and I’m very exited about it. For those whom don’t know it, Microsoft is actually bringing 1800+ persons from all around the world to their headquarters so they can share information with them and gather feedback. We have a huge week coming up, well I can’t really say anything more about it, pretty much everything is under NDA.

Introduction It has been a few articles I’ve been mentioning the fact that we (Negotium, the company I work for) have migrated to visual studio online (TFS Online). This service offers most of the features offered by the on premises version of Team Foundation Server 2013 and even some exclusive features. If you have only a vague idea of what can do TFS2013/VSO and you want to learn more I very highly recommend Professional Application Lifecycle Management from Wrox.

At work I am trying to implement automated build for SharePoint (full trust) projects on visual studio online. (Expect to have several articles about this as and when I meet and solve errors) When doing SharePoint development we have to sign assemblies with a certificate. When the project is initialized there are two options: Certificate is protected by a password: (pfx extension) that was with first versions of SharePoint tooling, or if you have created the structure of (visual studio) solution yourself with several assemblies.

Introduction We, SharePoint developers of ancient times when “full trust” solutions ruled, have understood one thing: using JavaScript improves by far our solutions. Indeed this allows to reduce the load of the servers and makes the user experience more “responsive”. But what if you want to display messages in different languages depending on the user? In .NET (understand server-side) it is quite simple, just use of resources. (see one of my posts on the subject)

First and foremost this article is a feedback from the field of a very particular case of SharePoint development. Telerik products and components are very good and accelerate your developments (SharePoint or not) providing you advanced and customizable controls. Some of you already know it, I work in a team that develops products for SharePoint (www.oceanik.com and the others one do not have yet dedicated sites, we still have work on the marketing).
