SP2010 Custom Document Library - List Definition

Question

I created a custom Document Library in VS 2010, I've added a content type with some custom fields based on the document content type.

Which parameters do I need to use in my elements.xml/schema.xml to enable following options on my custom doc lib:

• Require Check Out = TRUE
• Create Major Versions (Enabled)

This might do what you need for the versioning:

• ForceCheckout = TRUE
• VersioningEnabled = TRUE
• EnableMinorVersions = FALSE

Some properties can only be set via code, and then you have to make a SPListEventReceiver and override ListAdded

But for these you should be okay
