Configuring AJAX Extensions In SharePoint
Using SmartPart in SharePoint can reduce web parts development time.
The SmartPart install document includes instructions on configuring AJAX Extensions on SharePoint website configuration file, but it lacks 2 issues I’ve encountered while enabling SmartPart on my SharePoint website:
- This is pretty straight forward – if you’re using a more advanced version of the AJAX extensions – you should update its full assembly name:
Assembly="ReturnOfSmartPart, Version=1.3.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=9f4da00116c38ec5"
- Under runtime->assemblyBinding tags add a dependent assembly tag:
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Extensions" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
<bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-1.1.0.0" newVersion="3.5.0.0" />
</dependentAssembly>
Hope you’ll find it useful.
