Identify Publish a Major Version

For some strange reason SharePoint doesn't raise an ItemCheckingIn or ItemCheckedIn event when documents are published in new major versions, unless you do a Checkin and select major version in the same operation.

How can you identify a "Publish a Major Version" with other events? I did some googling and experiments and found out that using BeforeProperties and AfterProperties in the ItemUpdating handler might do the job. Similar posts can be found here, but I didn't get the same result.




int iBefore, iAfter;
iBefore = int.Parse(properties.BeforePropeties["vti_level"]);
iAfter = int.Parse(properties.AfterPropeties["vti_level"]);

Using the value of iBefore and iAfter I was able to identify the following events:
Event
iBefore
iAfter
CheckIn Minor Version
255
255
CheckIn Major Version
255
1
Publish a Major Version
2
2

So if (iBefore == iAfter) you a facing a "Publish a Major Version" event.

Office - There has been a network or file permission error

Some of our clients are occationally experiencing the following error in Office "There has been a network or file permission error".



It's hard to find an explanation for the issue but I found this blog quite interesting. Indexing services on Windows Vista could cause the problem.

Another great blog describes ways to solve it for Windows XP SP2 and Office 2007.

MOSS Performance considerations

I just read this blog about performance considerations in MOSS 2007. Especially the section about SPList object is worth reading in detail.

Using the List.Items.Count should be avoided at any costs. It basically send a very complex and expensive SQL query, especially on large lists. If you need statistics use the List.ItemCount instead which uses the statistics information from SQL Server about the list to provide data. No absolutely correct though.

Very large document libraries - very strange SQL

If you ever come across the following SQL statement you need to take a critical look at various web parts other SharePoint related code recently deployed at your site.

This blog describes a similar issue, as well as this blog. Using
targetList.Items[...]
can cause this issue. Use
targetList.GetItemByUniqueId(...) or
targetList.GetItemById(...)
instead.

Also - might be related to this issue reported by Microsoft. A hotfix exists!
