Is this procedure to install Sharepoint extensions on VS2008 a hack for pirated OS?
If not why this tedious installation procedure?
Hi Naveen,
Sharepoint is a server which runs on Windows Server operating system. Microsoft is expecting all developers machines have Sharepoint server installed. But if we look normal scenario in which a developer having XP box and no sharepoint installed, then he won't be able to install sharepoint extensions for visual studio. So he won't be able to develop sharepoint applications from his machine. In this article, i was just trying to explain a workaround using which u can install the extensions and start developing applications for MOSS on an XP Box.
