Hi,
A simple question (I think) which will result in a simple answer (I hope)
I have a SharePoint Enterprise installed somewhere
I have VS 2012 Ultimate on my machine, all tools installed (I think)
To develop/test against the SharePoint, do I need SharePoint installed on my local machine ?
If not so simple, don’t hesitate to elaborate 😉
thanks again.
OK – checking out the hardware requirements for SP etc….
seems to me a lot of processing power and memory space is needed ?
what kind of all-in-one machines are you guys working on ?
Thanks Vlad
I’m used to a enterprise grade Java dev env where ‘everything’ is in a version control system and we can go back to whatever situation we want. Also I’m not used to having the application server or DB on my local machine.
I’m sensing the .NET world or maybe only the SharePoint dev world might be a bit different ?
It’s surely is fun to explore ( hope it stays that way 😉
Simplest I can make it :
You need SharePoint DLL’s on machines where you develop.
1. Recomanded you install SharePoint.
2. Copy DLL and “include” them every time you make a project.
I would strongly go for a ALL-IN-ONE dev machine (DC+SQL+SP) so you can easily snapshot it and go back when your builds go wrong. Maybe a dev will be able to elaborate more 🙂
