Administrative Class Library
Applies to: SharePoint Foundation 2010
The administrative class library reference of Microsoft SharePoint Foundation includes the major public namespaces that are usable by third-party developers for solutions that run on servers (as distinct from running on a client) and that provide functionality for farm administrators, Web application administrators, and site collection administrators. (For lower-level functionality, see the Core class library reference. For classes that run on a client, see the Client API library reference.)
