Examples

The following code example shows you how to create a method, complete with method instances, filter descriptors, default values, and type descriptors, for the ProductModel entity in the AdventureWorks database.

Prerequisites

• Make sure a Shared Service Provider has already been created.

• Create an LOBSystem instance and set connection parameters as shown in How to: Create an LobSystem Using the Administration Object Model.

• Create the ProductModel entity as shown in How to: Create an Entity Using the Administration Object Model

• Replace the constant value EnterYourSSPNameHere in the code with the name of your Shared Resource Provider.

• Project References

Add the following Project References in your console application code project before running this sample:

• Microsoft.SharePoint

• Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal

• Microsoft.Office.Server
