MOSS flag in SharePoint API

Asked By: Roman Christensen Date: Mar 03, 2008 Category: MOSS Views: 196

Is there an easy, elegant way to identify, through the object model,
if MOSS is installed on the farm? I've looked at the SPFarm object
and I don't know of any aside from attempting to access DLLs that
would throw an error in a WSS environment.

Any thoughts?

Not that I am aware of. I do the following...

string isapiFolder =
Microsoft.SharePoint.Utilities.SPUtility.GetGenericSetupPath("ISAPI");
string userProfileServicePath = System.IO.Path.Combine(isapiFolder,
"UserProfileService.asmx");
bool SharePointServerInstalled =
System.IO.File.Exists(userProfileServicePath);
