PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Example SharePoint 2007 SP2 webpart using RadAjaxTreeView, context menu, RadAjaxPanel, and loading panel.
Requires use of VSeWSS 1.3 March 2009 CTP to facilitate rapid development/deployment. Just click Build/Deploy menu item after making any changes and it will deploy automatically to your SharePoint environment.
Best used in a SharePoint development virtual machine envrionment. Tested with Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2, SQL Server 2008 SP1, Office SharePoint Server 2007 SP2, IE 8 using Virtual PC 2007 SP1 on Windows Vista SP2 (all 32-bit).
Pay close attention to the post-build event since it seems to be a reasonable work-around to an error known to exist in VSeWSS 1.3 March 2009 CTP.
Pay close attention to the notes at the top of the main .cs file which explains some strange things I had to do to get this all to work correctly.
Being new to Telerik controls, I found I had to may be overkill or unnecessary, but perhaps you can improve on things I coded incorrectly or inefficiently.
Since SharePoint webparts require a Document Library, I would suggest creating one in the site where you plan to test rather than rely on a default one, such as Shared Documents. In my development environment, I created a Document Library named "Webparts", then created a Webpart Page called WebPartTesting based on the single web part on one page template. Its on that page that I added my web part to test. If the web part won't add, try attaching to the correct instance of w3wp.exe just before you click the Add button to see where in your code things might be going wrong.
