SharePoint: History

Microsoft started working for SharePoint from late 1990's. Before SharePoint, Microsoft released several different products like Site Server, Digital Dashboard etc, and finally by the mid 2000 Microsoft released STS and SPS. this was the first major release in this series.

2000

STS	SPS 2001
SharePoint team services	Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server
Used for collaboration	Document management
No enterprise search	Enterprise search
No strict document management
Used for collaboration

The name was only SharePoint but they don’t share any thing between them. They were built on different data storage technologies.

2003 (Microsoft combine these two products)

WSS 2.0	Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003
WSS became the platform product	SPS 2003 was built on the top of WSS
WSS was built on the top of .NET
Framework 1.0
WSS became the platform product

Inconsistencies were in the product because of consolidating two separate products. Like WSS was providing some functionality which SPS 2003 was not providing, however; SPS 2003 was built on the top of WSS 2.0 so it must provide base line functionality provided by WSS 2.0.

               

2006                                                               

WSS 3.0	Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007
WSS was still the platform product	MOSS 2007 was built on the top of WSS 3.0
WSS was built on the top of .NET	Web content management
Framework 2.0	Enterprise search
Collaboration	User profiles
Document management	BDC (Business Data Catalog)
Visioning	InfoPath form services
Portal	BI (Business Intelligence)
	Excel Services

Microsoft renamed the product from SPS to MOSS because new features were added in that release and they were not only related to the portal functionality.

                                                                                                               

Now it's the 2011 and SharePoint 2010 has been released with lots of changes, enhansments and improvements. I am not gonna talk about it in this post.

Hope you guys like this information.

FATAL ERROR UNABLE TO CREATE OUTPUT FILE IN C/ C++

In C language while executing your code you might have encountered an error




Fatal Unable to create output file

This Error means that the comipler is unable to create the output file on the specified path because either it doesn't exist or it is write protected


1. To fix this error open your C Compiler and check the directory setting by going to Options and than Directories

 Note down the output directory


2. Open my computer and browse to your TC folder, and than right click on the folder in which you are trying to create output file, and click on properties. In my case the folder is BIN


4. In the properties, make sure that the read-only option is unchecked click on apply


5. Windows will ask you to confirm changes, Select "Apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files", and than click on OK

We are done, and you should be able to execute your code without any error. If you are still having problem please post in comment.

P.S. If you are still having problem than please download a working copy of TC from HERE, and Extract this folder in your C Drive, so that the path to your bin folder is C:\tc\BIN
