.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / Extensibility / January 2006VS.NET 2005 SDK Books?
Are there any recommended books on extending VS.NET 2005 using the VSIP SDK? I've installed the SDK and started looking through the documentation - which is good, however I was interested to know if there are any books. Cheers, Stuart Hi Stuart, As far as I know, currently there isn't an specific book focused on this field.:( Thanks!

I assume you've read "Inside Visual Studio.NET 2003"? As you can see from it's name it contains no references to the VS 2005 SDK (and, by choice, not even the old VSIP SDK). Still, it contains a good reference to the extensibility model. IIRC an update for VS.NET 2005 is in progress (but not readily available?). // Johan AFAIK, no. The only chance is the second edition of the book "Working with Visual Studio 2005" (formerly "Inside Visual Studio .NET 2003") by Craig Skibo and others and he told me that they planned to add some chapter about VSIP. I'm not sure if they did, and in any case, alas, the book is not on sale, you can get it only purchasing a package box of VS 2005 Professional Edition or registering your MSDN copy.

I found that when I registered my MSDN copy I got information about obtaining a different, completely unrelated book. I'd love to get hold of a copy of this new book if anyone knows of another method to do that!!! Loz. >> AFAIK, no.

I just checked again and the book in question has now been posted on the registration portal!!! So it looks like MSDN subscribers can finally get a copy :-) It wasn't there a couple of weeks ago when I looked!

Acknowledged, that book was not there some days ago (only the book about Team System) but I did write to the author to put it there... For all: 1) Registering for MSDN Subscriber downloads does NOT register your VS 2005 copy. 2) The benefits of registration (including the book) are described at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/regbenefits/ 3) To register the VS 2005 copy, click the Help \ Register Product menu and follow the steps. 4) The book does NOT include new chapters about the VS 2005 SDK SignatureBest regards, Carlos J.

If I've got access to MSDN subscriber downloads (Team System Developer) - shouldn't I already be considered registered? I can't find anything about the book after logging in - or is this completely unrelated ... // Johan >> AFAIK, no.

You can't get it through MSDN subscriber downloads, its a Microsoft Press book (which you can't buy, work that on out!). Now I've found that it has finally been posted to where it should have been posted, its worth telling you this: 1. Start MSDN version of VS and click on 'register product' in the file menu. 2. Go through all that stuff. 3. You'll get an email from MS pointing you to the registration benifits sitel. 4. Go there and login using passport. 5. The book is now at the top of the list of 'benifits' (3Mb PDF). At least now its worth the hassle of all this. When I orginally tried I ended up at a dead end with no book!!! HTH, Loz.
