In Detail

Microsoft Content Management Server 2002 is a dynamic web publishing system with which you can build websites quickly and cost-efficiently. MCMS provides the administration, authoring, and data management functionality, and you provide the website interface, logic, and workflow. Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server (SPS) also features in the book. SPS 2003 enables enterprises to deploy an intelligent portal that seamlessly connects users, teams, and knowledge so that people can take advantage of relevant information across business processes to help them work more efficiently.

You’ve mastered the basics of MCMS, and setup your own MCMS installation. You’ve only scratched the surface. This book is your gateway to squeezing every penny from your investment in MCMS and SPS, and making these two applications work together to provide an outstanding richness of content delivery and easy maintainability.

As a developer, the Publishing API (PAPI) is at the heart of your work with MCMS, and this book starts by taking you on the most detailed tour of the PAPI you will find anywhere. As a live example, a component that reveals the structure of your MCMS site is created, taking you through how to manage the common elements of MCMS programmatically.

Getting SharePoint and MCMS to work together is the next stop in the book. You will see how to use SharePoint’s search engine to search MCMS content, publish content between the two systems, and create SharePoint Web Parts to draw content from MCMS.

To ease your everyday work with MCMS, there are chapters on placeholder validation, and some useful custom placeholders for common MCMS tasks, such as a date-time picker, a placeholder for multiple attachments, and a DataGrid placeholder among others.

There are a number of ways to consume MCMS content from the outside world, and we look at two exciting ways here; RSS and InfoPath/Web Services. The InfoPath solution provides another interface to MCMS content that allows content authors to concentrate on content and not the presentation.

  • This book starts strong, with 3 chapters dedicated to building an example application with the Publishing API. While the code examples are plentiful, are (inevitably a bit ‘) redundant. The authors have decided to establish an administrative tool, as the most effective way to illustrate the ability of the Publishing API. This was an effective technique that are exposed to the core of the API very quickly to the reader, and with the added benefit of communicating for the purpose of the MCMS server. If you are not sure how I was, as the problems of Microsoft Content Management Server, or may not be the right solution for that book will take you a long way in understanding the product and its role in implementing the Plattform.Nach based administration tool, the book takes a refreshing detour search engine topic. Instead of going into detail, I make this chapter with these words, if you need a primer on the basics of search engine optimization, combine to give this chapter a shot. I think you will spend mögen.Zunächst authors three chapters for the integration of SharePoint and configuration. If you are using SharePoint as the basis for your product or technology for internal portal, you should consider the benefits of integration with MCMS, or possibly with MCMS, SharePoint instead. My experience with SharePoint always reminded me of the end of a brewery tour, subject to swell. While SharePoint is extraordinarily rich in features, always seems that the average user or is not interested in trains or intimidated by them. The interesting aspect of it is my opinion that the MCMS Publishing API is developed, which allows applications / sites for the route (with some limitations), and again the Zusha further advantage, a tool that will assume the functions administrative (management of transaction documents). I immediately felt that if my goal was to web content through a single number of channels, then MCMS management has been a pleasant lightweight alternative to SharePoint. Actually, I always thought the company web site design and wonder how a product like this could be the efficiency of their operations auswirken.Das refreshing to learn something, at least was r me was that during MCMS and integrating it with SharePoint, SharePoint is not necessary. In fact, the book is a good job of illustrating how to prevent SharePoint SharePoint insgesamt.Mit fully addressed in order to move the book off this time, the subtleties of the limitations in the implementation of dynamic content to discuss validation of dynamic content and production as well as static content. Also of note are the chapters for the integration of InfoPath as a business tool and the integration of RSS feeds dedicated website for the sale, which were all filled Beispiele.Alles code in all, this funny book. With the exception of Section SharePoint inevitable, the book was dedicated to the development MCMS and as such had a lot of sample code to examine. As evidence of this book, I think you can only read the code examples and provides an introduction to the API Publishing. A disclaimer, for example, applications in this book are very simple structure. All sample code is procedural in nature. Take it for what it is, a series of examples to read. This book is not scheduled for the issues of application design, address, and if you know that you are deeply disappointed sein.Bewertung: 5 / 5
