How is a sandboxed solution packaged for installation?
Like a farm solution, a sandboxed solution is packaged for installation in a solution package (.wsp) file. Each site collection has a solution gallery that is used to store all sandboxed solutions.
How are sandboxed solutions used in SharePoint Foundation?
A sandboxed solution, in contrast to a farm solution, enables site collection administrators to install custom solutions in SharePoint Foundation without the involvement of a higher-level administrator. The Sandbox Solution framework provides a mechanism for executing user-provided code outside of the IIS worker process.
How are sandboxed solutions managed in Visual Studio 2010?
Sandboxed solutions are managed through a new Solution Gallery at the site collection level and farm-level tools found in Central Administration. Additionally, Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 can deploy solutions directly to the sandbox during development.
How can a sandboxed solution escape some restrictions?
There are techniques that enable a sandboxed solution to escape some restrictions. The two most important techniques are as follows: A farm administrator can install, as a farm solution, a full trust proxy that provides, to sandboxed solutions, some operations that sandboxed solutions cannot perform directly.
Each site collection has a solution gallery that is used to store all sandboxed solutions. The sandboxed solutions run in an environment that has access to a subset of the SharePoint Foundation server object model and a subset of the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 assemblies.
Can a sandboxed solution run in the IIS worker process?
Since sandboxed solutions don’t run in the IIS worker process, neither the IIS Application pool nor the IIS Server should restart. If we have the Server farm and there are multiple Site collections deployed, we need to do some changes or develop something for the particular site collection.
How to remove sandboxed solution from Site collection?
A farm administrator can deactivate and delete a sandboxed solution from a site collection by using SharePoint Management Shell (Windows PowerShell). The commands are Uninstall-SPUserSolution and Remove-SPUserSolution.
