Hi Paul,

 

I've  used the following codeplex project with some success:

 

http://www.codeplex.com/mossfeaturegenerator

 

I takes a bit of getting used to, but it can generate site column features
and content type features, and it appeared to work comprehensively in our
tests.

 

At least it saves you the hassle of authoring the feature.xml and
element.xml from scratch. It's certainly pre-release however, and I would
always suggest reviewing what it generates to ensure "it's got everything".

 

Cheers,

Trevor Andrew

Subject: Content Type feature

 

Hi all,

 

Having spent copious amounts of time developing and modifying content types
in dev, I'd now like to move them to production. It seems there is no simple
OOTB way to achieve this without redeploying the entire site collection.

 

The following look very promising. Does anyone have any experience with this
approach, or recommend another that doesn't involve cutting XML or CAML by
hand?

Kind regards,
