It's unfortunate that x64 environments have not been considered for development in the first place. It's absolutely natural to develop on 64-bit systems once they have been deployed in production environment. (In most cases it's actually the other way round, don't you agree?)

Anyway, my colleagues an I can't wait to get our hands on the extensions for our 64-bit development environments so we don't have to do all the dirty work manually any more.

Thanks

Will there ever be first class support for Sharepoint built into Visual Studio? More along the lines of WSPBuilder.

Thanks

sad for days... I just installed and configured Server 2008 x64 with Studio 2008. The Sharepoint extensions were the last thing to install and now... no go.

Hopefully this is a top priority so I can use my Server 2008 x64 installed laptop to do dev with on the road.

Oh well hopefully soon.

Hi Dave,

Yes it's a top priority. Sorry you didn't find out this limitation earlier.

Cheers,

Paul
