Hmmm Why doesn't Microsoft just release that solution generator app separate to the VSeWSS installer if it can run on 64-bit?!?
Nice work "unbundling" the installer Ishai :) Sezai Kömür BEng, BSc Senior Developer - Vivid Group Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist http://www.moss2007.com.au/ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ishai Sagi Sent: Wednesday, 10 September 2008 3:52 PM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com Subject: RE: [OzMOSS] RE: 64-bit versus 32-bit for MOSS Environments Just for you: http://www.sharepoint-tips.com/2008/09/how-to-use-microsoft-solution-generator.html -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeremy Thake Sent: Wednesday, 10 September 2008 4:10 PM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com Subject: RE: [OzMOSS] RE: 64-bit versus 32-bit for MOSS Environments Could you point me in the direction of the install for Solution Generator for 64-bit then?

The solution generator can work on 64bit machines. Just don't use the extensions. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeremy Thake Sent: Wednesday, 10 September 2008 4:02 PM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com Subject: RE: [OzMOSS] RE: 64-bit versus 32-bit for MOSS Environments I've just found it easier building the list and adding the content types, views, workflows and general configuration (versioning etc.) and then reverse engineering it usimg the Solution Generator. Found the schema.xml code very complexed (especially the <Views> section).

For a list definition project, I much prefer to start with a copy of the "Custom List" folder, and import it into a WSPBuilder project. You can even easily make a template out of that in visual studio. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeremy Thake Sent: Wednesday, 10 September 2008 3:45 PM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com Subject: RE: [OzMOSS] RE: 64-bit versus 32-bit for MOSS Environments Out of interest Isahi, what method do you use to generate the schema.xml and newform.aspx etc.? The open source tools I've used just didn't seem to gererate working files that would deploy properly (e.g. New button didn't work etc.).

Really, VSeWSS in its current version just plain sucks. I don't recommend using it. The next version may improve, and those improvements may well include support for 64bit, but for now my recommendation is not to use the extensions. Use WSPBuilder or STSDEV or other community tools. Worst case - install a 32bit vpc for the things you cant do without in VSeWSS (I can't imagine what those will be though). -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeremy Thake Sent: Wednesday, 10 September 2008 1:45 PM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com Subject: RE: [OzMOSS] RE: 64-bit versus 32-bit for MOSS Environments Yeah, it's really not worth losing the functionality in VSeWSS, especially for generating the List Template definitions (and schemas) with Solution Generator! Those things are a pain to cut by hand!

The Microsoft Best Practices for SharePoint Server (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-au/library/cc850694.aspx) recommend a 64-bit architecture throughout, which is fine. I'm concerned about support for developer tools in a 64-bit environment. AFAIK, VSeWSS still doesn't work on a 64-bit O/S. Are there any other gotchas that I should be aware of? Thanks, David.
