I want my web parts to act as providers and consumers with OOTB SharePoint web parts, including filters.
To design these web parts I need to know the interface of the OOTB web parts, eg. a "Links" web part provides an IWebPartRow, with a Type, URL and Notes.
I can get the information by:
a web part programmed to interact
generically, and display the data it
receives
putting the web
parts on a page, and look at the
available connections
inspecting the DLL's (haven't
tried this, because I can't find the
DLL's, but I guess it's
possible)
It seems strange to me that there is no documentation of these interfaces.
Is there a Microsoft document, or a book, which documents the OOTB web parts and filters?
