Troubleshooting SPSite/SPWeb leaks in WSS v3 and MOSS 2007

Just wanted to make the community aware of a new blog just written by Stefan Gobner (EE Engineer at Microsoft and also a colleague of mine). He explain very well the steps that can be taken by SharePoint Administrators to isolate if a site that contains custom code, which does not properly dispose objects correctly and also how you can isolate components that are leaking these objects.

Keep up the great work Stefan your a living legend. Wink

Hello Booby,

I am new to the SharePoint world and try learning tricks to excel in this field. Right now i am developing a form(Web enabled Infopath forms) for sharepoint site, in  which I want to do cascading through drop down lists e.g. as soon as user selects the country from Country_DropDownList, form should populate the next drop down list with cities (datasource are sharepoint lists) and so on. Since it is web enabled i can't use built-in filter functions, so i am trying using it through web services, but webserices giving me hard time to achieve my task and came up with few questions and problems, and hope you will be able to help me.

Questions:

1. Is there is any other way to achieve this task (other than web services)?

2. How to deploy web service on sharepoint? (I am getting hard time deploying webservices on sharepoint site, I tried so many solutions, but didn't work for me.)

3. How should I access my data source, which is sharepoint lists, from a web service?

4.Since web services doesn't support collections (some XML serialzation), how should i get (from sharepoint list) and pass (pass back to form) result list or collections?

Please if you can help me in any way, I would really really appriciate that. Thanks in advance
