How to checkout a file from a sharepoint server programatically in C#?

Question

I am trying to implement the following example from Microsoft:

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/lists.lists.checkoutfile%28v=office.12%29.aspx

But unfortunately, I cannot find the correct assembly to add to my project in order to access Web_Reference_Folder (this is unknown, and Resharper doesn't automatically offer an option to add it).

I have read that I need to install the Sharepoint Services 3 with SP2, but this setup package is for server operating systems only, it won't run on my Windows 7 x64.

So which tools do I need to install, or which assemblies to add in order to work with Web_Reference_Folder?

Answer 1

When you have added the Web Reference, a Web Reference folder will be added to the solution explorer. The Web Reference folder will include the name of the web host. For more information please see the below link
