20. Object Model Options Web Level SPWeb.UIVersion (int values of 3 or 4) Site Collection SPSite.UIVersionConfigurationEnabled “Preview Mode” if in V4 and UIVersionConfigurationEnabled==true

21. Versioned Controls Allows for rendering of version specific content. During Render At Load Time – handles child controls properly

22. CSS Changes What has changed in SharePoint CSS? Almost everything! Any customizations that depend on V3 CSS such as master pages will need to be redesigned to work correctly in V4. Rendering based on XHTML WCAG 2.0 AA level compliant

23. Custom Actions No more toolbars in V4 UI Mode Toolbar actions are moved Moved to Custom Commands on the ribbon. It is possible to show ribbon and toolbar by modifying the list form web part properties. Actions with code behind (ControlAssembly, ControlClass, or ControlSrc attribute) don’t migrate to Custom Commands tab.

24. Upgrading master pages Remove unnecessary controls, which are replaced with ribbon Publishing Console, Site actions, sign in and log-in controls Add new place holders PlaceHolderQuickLaunchTop, PlaceHolderQuickLaunchBottom Add the Ribbon to page Add additional controls to page SPPageManager, ScriptManager, ScriptLink Modify CSS classes based on your UI

25. Upgrading themes Old themes are not compatible with 2010 New themes files have to be created Old themes can be used with legacy UI rendering mode before upgrade to 2010 UI is done

26. Upgrade changed content If SharePoint Designer has been used to customize site content, changed files are in database, not in file system Two options Reset the content to be in uncustomized state and provide updates using Feature Framework Use SPD to manually update the changed files

27. List view threshold Queries that return/touch large numberof list items may fail. Thresholds are configurable through the Central Administration site.

28. Large List Considerations This can bite you Need it to surface in Development Test as a non-admin user Use realistic data volumes in development and test servers Refactor code to use ContentIterator, if possible

29. Using Existing Code All SharePoint 2007 code in all processes will work without recompilation Achieved by using machine level binding redirections Binding redirections will work also for any custom code, which is not running under IIS

31. Deprecated API's Numerous API’s have been deprecated. Recompile your application for 2010 and you will see warnings for any affected API’s within your application. Deprecated doesn’t always mean unsupported! Only affect will be a compiler warning Most API’s deprecated in 2007 are still in 2010 Microsoft will not invest in these API’s in the future and will remove deprecated APIs after next version

32. Deprecated API's Examples SPFarm.Create Message: Use the SPFarm.Create method that takes a passphrase. SPVirtualServer Message: Use SPWebApplication or SPIisSettings instead. Shared Service Provider Code in some level
