Installing EMC for .net development

2010-08-02 Thread Neil Bailie
Hi,


I'm looking to do some .net programming with Exchange 2010 making use of
some of the Exchange powershell commands.  I know I need to install the
Exchange 2010 Management Tools onto my development machine but I'm
running into a problem...


My development machine is a member of the corporate domain which is
running Exchange 2003, my plan was to write the code on my development
machine and then copy it to the test environment for testing.
Unfortunately I can't get the tools to install as the install fails the
readiness checks due to the Exchange 2003 environment in the corporate
domain.

 

Is there any way I can get the install to skip the checks?  I'm only
interested in installing the Management Tools and I'm not developing the
.net code for corporate domain so it's not like I'm trying to manage the
2003 environment with the Exchange 2010 tools.

 

Push comes to shove I'll build a development VM in the test environment
but it would be a lot easier if I could continue to develop on my
corporate laptop...

 

Any advice would be appreciated.


Neil

No. EMC and the SDK assume that the schema has already been extended.

Personally, I develop in vi, so I don't miss it (I find VS too cumbersome).
