A resumee about SharePoint Technology Conference 2009 in San Francisco

by Andreas Grabner, Jan 30, 09

I’ve attended, exhibited and lectured at the SPTechCon 2009 in San Francisco this week. I was glad that I was given the opportunity to talk about SharePoint Performance and Scalabilty. I’ve recorded both my classes

  • 602: INTO THE WILD: THE CHALLENGES OF CUSTOMIZED SHAREPOINT APPS IN RELEASE
  • 801: BUILDING SCALABLE, HIGH-PERFORMANCE SHAREPOINT APPLICATIONS

Samples that I’ve used at the sessions are here for download:

Video of the recorded session will follow. So watch out for it.

The conference for me was a good proof that we all need to learn and understand the frameworks we are working with in order to build good applications. If you have followed my previous SharePoint related blog entries (and there are more to come) – then you have hopefully taken away some best practices that will make your life as developer easier when building applications based on SharePoint.

The conference is over. Its been a good 3 days in San Francisco. BZMedia is going to do the same show again in June in Boston. Hope to see you there.

  1. I attended both of your sessions at the SPTechCon in San Francisco last week – great job! I got a lot out of them, definitely one of the better set of sessions I went to all week.

    I noticed you were talking about how to attach the debugger in Visual Studio at the end of the second session, and wanted to let you know (if you don’t already) about Scott Hillier’s “Attach Debugger” feature:

    http://blogs.msdn.com/sharepoint/archive/2007/04/10/debugger-feature-for-sharepoint.aspx

    I use this in dev all the time, it’s very handy – instead of having to guess which worker process to attach to, this one will either directly attach for you from a SharePoint custom action in the Site Actions menu, or tell you the ID of the worker process to manually attach to.

  2. Thanks for that link – thats a nice feature and definitely makes debugging easier.

    Keep me posted in case you have other tools and features to share with me and the community.

    Good to hear that you enjoyed the session – thanks for the feedback

  3. No problem, Andreas.

    You should also check out WSPBuilder:

    http://www.codeplex.com/wspbuilder

    WSPBuilder is a great tool for rapid SharePoint solution development, but it has a nice feature you could take advantage of for debugging even if you weren’t using it to develop solutions with the tool. Once installed, you will get a new bit of functionality within Visual Studio. When you right click on your VS project, you’ll see a WSP menu, and if you expand it, there’s an option to attach the debugger to IIS worker processes. This is even faster and doesn’t require you to hit a web site to use the debugger feature, but I’m not sure if it’s just attaching to all of the IIS processes or just the one you need.
