The Symantec Solution SDK (SSDK) contains assemblies, libraries, and Visual Studio templates that enable you to effectively create solutions that integrate with the Symantec Management Platform. For additional information, visit the Getting Started article.
8.0 130 SDK Version 8.0.130
7.6 1383 SDK Version 7.6.1383
7.5 SP1 3153 SDK Version 7.5.3153
7.5.1670 SDK Version 7.5.1670
7.5.1366 SDK Version 7.5.1366
7.5.1264 SDK Version 7.5.1264
7.5.1264 Zip file that contains the SIM installer, its PL, and licenses to install ITMS.
Is there a timeline on when the SSDK will be available for 8.0?
Thanks, that's very helpful. Now all I need is the bug with tokens to be fixed.
Here is a link to the SDK 7.5 Documentation it includes a section on breaking changes.
Are there any plans for making a current versions of the SDK available? There have been a lot of changes in the past year that break things that work in 7.1 or 7.5.1366. I was hoping to get maybe the new documentation, or something with notes on all the changes and maybe best practises to handle the changes.
Hi,
In Altiris 7.0 SP4, Veritas Cluster Server consumed some interfaces like “RoleHelper::ExportRole”, “RoleHelper::ImportRole”, etc. from "Altiris.NS.dll", which was 32-bit binary that time. Now we want it's counter part in x64.
For this I have downloaded and installed the ‘7.5.1366.Kit’ from “https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/downloads/symantec-solution-sdk-ssdk” and there I got ‘Altiris.NS.dll’ and required interfaces but then dll is still a 32-bit binary and there is no x64-bit version of it present.
Also,
1. We are unable to find this dll in only SMP 7.5 installed setup anywhere in the system.
Please suggest which reference/dll we have to consume to get above mentioned interfaces in x64-bit?
OR
Which solution/ SDK (version) need to be installed to get access to above mentioned interfaces in x64-bit?
2. Please suggest how to get 64-bit 'Altiris.NS.dll"?
An updated file, ITMS_7_5_Beta_Guid_1.pdf, has been attached. It contains some additional clarification regarding the configuration of the Cloud-enabled management infrastructure.
Sorry for the late timing on your question. At the time you asked, there really wasn't an "approved" ITMS version with the SSDK. However, that has changed, and I will be posting some information today/tomorrow where you can get the SSDK and a PL (with a SIM installation) that is all matched.
As for VS2010, there is an integration for Visual Studio 2010. It shows up in the 8.0 tree item. It will only work against the 7.5 code base. There is one gotcha, if you are developing plugin agents you should not use the 2010 integration. Microsoft has not yet created C++ templates for it so the agent projects cannot be properly created. Other than this, the integration seems to be working correctly.
Is there an approved build of ITMS/SMP 7.5 that we should couple with this 7.5 SSDK? Also, does this SSDK still only work with Visual Studio 2008 or can we move to 2010 with 7.5 SSDK?
Thanks!
Thanks for your help.
I use Integration version 1.0.103, that comes with Offline 7.1 TP6 SSDK. I've also checked it with 7.1 TP5, which has different version with the same result. These are messages from Output window in VS
Registering the Agent Plug-in Running command : "regsvr32.exe" /s "c:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\AgentPlugin1\AgentPlugin1\Debug\AgentPlugin1.dll" Failed to register agent plug-in "AgentPlugin1"
I don't think we need to go deep into this issue - i'm almost sure there are problems with my setup - i had NS 7.0 installation on same virtual machine, which was deleted before installing 7.1, but who knows. But as for command that VS is running - it does more than just 'regsvr32' (by the way regsvr32 works fine from command line and i can see agent plugins in agent's 'About' menu). Uninstall from command line (regsvr32 /u ) also works. VS integration needs to check that plugin is registered - to disable or enable corresponding menu items. and i think that check fails somehow (and that check is called when user is registering plugin which causes error i see).
Hi All,
I have installed 7.1 TP3 SSDK through "Altiris SDK instller" which in turns installs SDK from component server namely "ali-sdk.altiris.com" on date "12 March 2010".
I found version of one of the assembly namely "Altiris.NS.dll" from SSDK available with me as "7.1.1205.0" and its Created and Modified date as March 01,2010.
Does "7.1 Technical Preview 3" SSDK available with me and available here on this site are same or not ?
Thanks in advance.
David,
Since this file is so large (1.5GB) you may need the help of a download manager like iGetter (http://igetter.net/iGetter.html) that can resume a download if the connection is interrupted.
iGetter has a trial version that you can use to see if it helps.

I'm in China. I have tried many many times to download 71TP3Kit.zip but all failed. Is there another way to get the latest SDK?
Thanks
David
