Restrictions

Important limitations and assumptions of the plugin:

• Installation of the plug-in plugin requires administrator Administrator permissions to run the deployment scripts from the SharePoint Management Shell (PowerShell).
• While a single installation of the plug-inplugin's .wsp file is necessary, a separate execution of the model deployment script is needed for each different Content Source that was published into STageR.is published into StageR.

StagerBDCPlugin

The plugin is deployed as a .wsp file that gets deployed as a global farm solution. It implements the SharePoint BDC standard for custom connectors and gets executed from a SharePoint content source to extract the contents from StageR and hand them to SharePoint for indexing.

Security Trimming

Security trimming is available within SharePoint itself. To make this work, a SecurityTrimmerPre interface must be created (see SharePoint Security Pre-Trimmer 3.2).

The ISecurityTrimmerPre interface adds "claims" to the query prior to the security trimming, so it executes “pre” (prior to) the security trimmer. With the exception of deny ACLs, the function of the ISecurityTrimmerPre module is to always add results to the result set, rather than to remove them. In this sense, it is the opposite of a security trimmer.
