Create SharePoint Sub Sites

Hi,

Having the last days a conversation with IT director about creating multiple sub-sites, today have some time and make a litle search about creating Sub-Site.
Traveling half Portugal "Lisbon-Porto" in a train, read a litle SharePoint SDK and in fast way find a simple code to create multiple sub-site, using personal templates and user permissions.

Problem:
How do i get The Personal Template?

Go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web server extensions\12\Template\[Culture]\xml
and you will see a "WEBTEMPSPS.xml" or other file start with "WEBTEMP*".
Open File and you will see:
Template ID = 20
Name: SPS#0

The Name is the value use to Custom Template




using (SPSite site = new SPSite("[URL Top-Site]"))
{
SPWebApplication webapp= site.WebApplication;
webapp.Sites.Add([Site Path]"/Finance",
[Title]"Finance",
[Sub Site Descrition]"Finance Sub site",
[Language Site]1033,
[Name template]"[SPS#0]",
@"[Domain]\[Login Name]",
[OwnerName]"Administrator",
[Email]);
}

With this example my recomendation to create multiple sites is using XML configuration file to define hierarquical sites and Values ["URL","Title", "Descrition","Template","LoginName","OwnerName",Email].

Using STSADM
Delete Site
c:\programs\....\bin\stsadm -o deletesite -url http://localHost

Build Site
c:\programs\....\bin\stsadm -o createsite -url http://localHost -ownerlogin [Login User] -owneremail [email] -sitetemplate STS#0

Delete a Web Based on a Template
stsadm -o deleteweb -url http://localHost/teste

Create Web Based on a Template
stsadm -o createweb -url http://localhost/teste -lcid 1033 -sitetemplate Helpdesk#1 -title TestWeb


Hope this help creating sub Sites in a fast Way :)

SPDisposeCheck, Check SharePoint Dispose Code

Hi,

Have been working with Sharepoint API SDK code and one problem i have some time ago was Dispose Controls, this tool can help us to create a better code...

From blogs.msdn Article:
"SPDisposeCheck is a tool to help you to check your assemblies that use the SharePoint API so that you can build better code. It provides assistance in correctly disposing of certain SharePoint objects to help you follow published best practice. This tool may not show all memory leaks in your code. Further investigation is advised if you continue to experience issues.

SPDisposeCheck.exe takes the path to a managed .DLL or .EXE or the path to a directory containing many managed assemblies. It will recursively search for and analyze each managed module attempting to detect coding patterns based on the MDSN article."

Hope this help...
