SPDisposeCheck Released!

SPDisposeCheck v1.3.1 has been released on MSDN Code Gallery, http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/SPDisposeCheck. This tool will help improve the quality of your SharePoint assemblies. It will inspect your SharePoint assemblies and check that you are correctly disposing of certain SharePoint objects (IDisposable objects which includes SPSite and SPWeb). The tool is based upon the guidance published in this MSDN article, Best Practices: Using Disposable Windows SharePoint Services Objects

This tool is not supported by Microsoft and is recommended to be used on Developer workstations and not on production SharePoint Server installations. For additional information, please head over to Paul Andrew's blog post.

SharePoint Administrator’s guide to not screwing up :)

On the SharePoint IT Pro documentation team blog there is a wonderful new paper out with some fancy name; we will call it the SharePoint Admin Guide. The paper was written by the team at SharePoint911 with guidance from Brenda C. at Microsoft.

The idea of the paper is it quickly touches on all of the considerations and gotchas a new administrator needs to watch out for. Things like common installation mistakes to what consideration for branding and development you need make. The idea is not for the paper to tell you in great detail everything you need to know. Instead, the paper makes sure you don't encounter the "I didn't even know about that" issue when you server farm. Of course if you want deep details then we reference all of that material also.

Anyway, go download it and read, I promise you will like it.

Imtech Fields Explorer Visual Studio 2008 plugin
Development, Productivity, SharePoint, Tools, Visual Studio, WCM

For the last couple of weeks we’ve been thinking here at Imtech ICT Velocity about how we could improve our SharePoint development process. During the last year we have gathered a lot of different tools which help us to automate the routine. And while they all are definitely very useful, they make the development environment quite complex. Maybe even too complex. One of the improvements we thought about was integrating all these different tools we have made into Visual Studio. Imtech Fields Explorer is the first one to go.

Based on customer feedback, Microsoft has decided to consolidate Microsoft Office PerformancePoint® Server scorecard, dashboard, and analytical capabilities into Office SharePoint Server Enterprise as PerformancePoint Services. This consolidation will enable you to deliver capabilities to your customers at a lower total cost of ownership.

You can be confident that supporting Planning customers remains a top priority for Microsoft. In mid-calendar-year 2009, Microsoft will release Office PerformancePoint Server 2007 Service Pack 3 (SP3), which will include updates to the current product’s Planning module; thereafter Microsoft will not make further investments in stand-alone versions of Office PerformancePoint Server. We will work closely with you and with our mutual customers on a one-to-one basis during this transition.
