Software Development Network>> SharePoint Products>> Is anyone using visual studio extensions for wss?
You can check the WSS v3 SDK regarding solution files.
Some short points:
the DDF (Diamond Definition File) determines what files are added to WSP file (really just a CAB) and where they are placed in WSP.
The Manifest.xml tells STSADM.EXE where to place the files contained in the WSP file on the server (/bin, GAC, controltemplates etc)

Hi Dennis
Yep - I'm using them - although having many problems. The SDK was only released on 22nd January, but is very helpful, as are a number of blogs. That's all I've found so far - the sdk is at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx FamilyID=05E0DD12-8394-402B-8936-A07FE8AFAFFD&displaylang=en
If you find any more detail, be sure to post - thanks
