DEVELOPMENT TOOLS IMPROVEMENTS SharePoint Development Toolset © Copyright Trinay Technology Solutions, 39 Buckland St, #5321 Manchester, CT 06042 www.trinay.com 570-575-0475.
DEVELOPMENT TOOLS Web Browser SharePoint 2010 provides users the capability to use a web browser to configure SharePoint entities, such as lists, workflows, and webs, in such a way so that they can be reused and re-deployed within other SharePoint locations. Users can configure a SharePoint site to contain specific lists, content types, workflows, and predefined data through the browser and then save the site as a template. The site template can then be made available for other users and, when a site is created from this template, it will look and contain the same SharePoint entities as the original site. Using the browser to save templates allows an easy means to create consistent and re-deployable SharePoint entities with no coding involved. © Copyright Trinay Technology Solutions, 39 Buckland St, #5321 Manchester, CT 06042 www.trinay.com 570-575-0475.

INFOPATH InfoPath Designer 2010 can be used to quickly create applications which allow users to interact with SharePoint 2010 , external list data and SharePoint workflows. Users can design forms to replace the existing SharePoint list, external list, and workflow forms with greater control over the business rules, data validation, and formatting of the information. InfoPath also allows for multiple views of the same data and the ability to hide or display parts of the form based on business rules. © Copyright Trinay Technology Solutions, 39 Buckland St, #5321 Manchester, CT 06042 www.trinay.com 570-575-0475.
INFOPATH To quickly get started, InfoPath Designer includes predefined form templates so users designing forms can quickly and easily generate new forms. Also included are predefined lookup fields, which allow the ability to lookup information from another SharePoint list. Customized forms can also include the pre-population of form data and the ability to interact with data from multiple lists. The forms generated in InfoPath Designer, once published to SharePoint, can be displayed within the InfoPath client application, or displayed in a web browser via Forms Services. © Copyright Trinay Technology Solutions, 39 Buckland St, #5321 Manchester, CT 06042 www.trinay.com 570-575-0475.
INFOPATH InfoPath forms can leverage the existing SharePoint web part infrastructure, allowing forms to not only be hosted within web parts, but also communicate and share data with other web parts on the page. Finally, forms published to SharePoint 2010 are portable. Saving a list as a template which uses a custom InfoPath form, as a solution file, ensures that the InfoPath form will be used when new lists are created from the template. © Copyright Trinay Technology Solutions, 39 Buckland St, #5321 Manchester, CT 06042 www.trinay.com 570-575-0475.

Visual Studio 2010 Improvements have been made to Visual Studio 2010 so that developers can quickly set up a project and more easily write and debug code. Project templates are available in Visual Studio 2010 for common SharePoint project development items such as web parts, event receivers, workflows, and list definitions. These templates set up the project so that developers can more quickly start writing code, adding stubbed-out class files, assembly references, and making the proper configurations, such as those required for a Sandboxed solution. © Copyright Trinay Technology Solutions, 39 Buckland St, #5321 Manchester, CT 06042 www.trinay.com 570-575-0475.
Visual Studio 2010 New visual designers have been added to aid in the development of workflows, building BDC models, creating application pages, and designing features and solution packages. These designers reduce the complexity and increase productivity for both SharePoint and .NET developers. Also, connections to SharePoint 2010 sites can be made directly from the Server Explorer, allowing developers a common view into all of the components that make up the SharePoint site. © Copyright Trinay Technology Solutions, 39 Buckland St, #5321 Manchester, CT 06042 www.trinay.com 570-575-0475.
Visual Studio 2010 Although SharePoint development is much more than just the creation of custom web parts, the development experience for the creation of web parts has vastly improved for developers. With Visual Studio 2010, developers now have the ability to visually design and create SharePoint 2010 web parts, decreasing the learning curve of .NET developers new to SharePoint development, and increasing the productivity of existing SharePoint developers. © Copyright Trinay Technology Solutions, 39 Buckland St, #5321 Manchester, CT 06042 www.trinay.com 570-575-0475.
Visual Studio 2010 Additionally, Visual Studio 2010 automatically creates the SharePoint solution file for the web part and provides a fluid experience for creating, deploying and debugging these web parts. Artifacts created from other applications can be imported into Visual Studio to be extended and/or placed under source control. For example, declarative artifacts created in SharePoint Designer 2010 can be imported to Visual Studio 2010 and extended with code and added to the Team Foundation (TFS) repository. © Copyright Trinay Technology Solutions, 39 Buckland St, #5321 Manchester, CT 06042 www.trinay.com 570-575-0475.
