My good friends Brett Lonsdale and Nick Swan (the guys behind Lightning Tools) have completed their book on the SharePoint Business Data Catalog (BDC).

The book has just finished Technical Review and is now available for purchase directly from Manning. The book goes into detail on BDC Security, BDC Search, BDC Business Data Columns, BDC Object Model, OBA, BDC Web Services, and of course the Application Definition File (ADF).

This is the only book available on the BDC. Until March 02, 2009, you can receive a 40% discount on the book by entering the following code when you order it: sbdc40

Earlier this month while I was speaking at the SharePoint Best Practices Conference in beautiful San Diego when I ran into Brett Lonsdale (who was also speaking at the event). Brett asked me if I had some time to answer a few impromptu questions. I agreed and he recorded my responses here:

Custom SharePoint Field Types, Great SharePoint Debugging Techniques, and SPDispose Check-Episode 16

Keith Dahlby found one of my tips helpful and he documented it here:

Add SPDisposeCheck to VS External Tools

Talking with Brett and making the podcast was a good time.

After months of part time skunks works effort, our WSS-only branded blog community is finally ready for prime time. While it doesn't contain all the bells and whistles originally planned, I’m relatively happy with the result. We’ll also be adding new functionality as time permits.

 

Finally, I’ll be blogging (really, I will) about some of the details of our implementation and sharing some of the features that only the authenticated users get to experience.

 

Enjoy the musings of our SharePoint pundits!
