In many occasions you have to specify the class as fully qualified name. I always forget how to do so.
[namespace].[classname], [assemblyname], Version=[version], Culture=[culture], PublicKeyToken=[token]
Now I know where to look at, if I stumble across the fully qualified name 🙂
A nice feature of a SPWeb, SPSite or SPWebApplication is the Properties Property. You can save information to this Hashtable.
e.g. webApplication.Properties[“MyProperty”] = “5”;
After a change to the PropertyBag, you have to webApplication.Update() the changes. But here comes the problem. The account updating the Properties has to be a member of the “Farm Administrators” group to be able to save the changes to the SPWebApplication, because you change a SPPersistantObject of your farm!
In one of my solutions I wanted to add a SPTimerJob through a FeatureReceiver in the feature. The feature was scoped to “Web”. I got an “Access denied” when I tried to do so.
The solution I found, was to create a second feature, which was scoped to “WebApplication”. From within this feature, I was able to create my timer job. But only in FeatureActivated. When I tried to add the job from FeatureInstalled, I got the error that SharePoint did not find the assembly, even if it was installed to the GAC.
The NavigateUrlFormat property of the SPMenuField allows you to specify a Url, which will be called if you click the field in a SPGridView.
1: SPMenuField colMenu = new SPMenuField(); <pre style="padding-right:0px;padding-left:0px;font-size:8pt;padding-bottom:0px;margin:0em;overflow:visible;width:100%;color:black;border-top-style:none;line-height:12pt;padding-top:0px;font-family:consolas, 'Courier New', courier, monospace;border-right-style:none;border-left-style:none;background-color:#f4f4f4;border-bottom-style:none"><span style="color:#606060"> 2:</span> colMenu.NavigateUrlFields = <span style="color:#006080">"WebUrl,AlertID,ListID"</span>;</pre> <pre style="padding-right:0px;padding-left:0px;font-size:8pt;padding-bottom:0px;margin:0em;overflow:visible;width:100%;color:black;border-top-style:none;line-height:12pt;padding-top:0px;font-family:consolas, 'Courier New', courier, monospace;border-right-style:none;border-left-style:none;background-color:white;border-bottom-style:none"><span style="color:#606060"> 3:</span> colMenu.NavigateUrlFormat = <span style="color:#006080">"{0}/_layouts/SubEdit.aspx?Alert={1}&List={2};</pre> 4: colMenu.TokenNameAndValueFields = "</span>WEBURL=WebUrl,ALERTID=AlertID,LISTID=ListId"; With the TokenNameAndValueFields property, you map the grid columns to %xyz%. If you want to use a JavaScript instead, you can do so: 1: MenuItemTemplate editAlertMenu = new MenuItemTemplate("
Just a small update for my Display all my alerts Webpart.
Handling search alerts is improved the assembly will not install in the GAC (Global Assembly Cache) to get rid of the FullTrust setting in the web.config Tags: SharePoint Webpart

Hello everyone. I have updated my SharePoint Webcontrols class. The original post shows the usage, and gives additional information. –> original post
Tags: SharePoint .NET
I have update my Fileserver Access Webpart.
Tags: SharePoint Webpart
**Update:
** The Webpart is not (yet) working as expected. Ajax only works for postbacks. The initial load will take longer, if you have many directories. I am working on this…
**Update2:
** Almost done! Ajax is working fine. Ajax is registered, so you don’t need to modify the web.config yourself.
Todo: Performance.
Hang on just a little more.
**Update3:
** Done. I have worked on my Webpart. It will now be faster and it is working 🙂
One of the problems with the SPGridView occurs, if you display e.g. the file size of files, and try to sort with this information. The internal value you get from a SPFile of FileInfo Object shows you the length of the file in bytes. This is great if you want to sort this column. But what if you choose to display the long value with the amount of bytes for a file not as the value, but formatted with SPUtility.
