How to create a SPlist and its SPView in SharePoint writing C# code against the WSS object model ?

Assume you want to create the list and its view when activating a SharePoint Feature.

        public class myFeatureReceiver : Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFeatureReceiver

        {

            public override void FeatureActivated(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties)

            {

                using (SPWeb web = properties.Feature.Parent as SPWeb)

                {

                    System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Creating the list");

                    //web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true; //use this in an application page no need in a dll

                    web.Lists.Add("Customers", "Store informations about my Company Customers", SPListTemplateType.GenericList);

                    web.Update();

 

                    System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Creating the Fields");

                    SPList myNewList = web.Lists["Customers"];

                    myNewList.Fields.Add("First Name", SPFieldType.Text, false);

                    myNewList.Fields.Add("Last Name", SPFieldType.Text, false);

                    myNewList.Fields.Add("Adress", SPFieldType.Text, false);

                    myNewList.Fields.Add("City", SPFieldType.Text, false);

                    myNewList.Fields.Add("Latest Purchase Date", SPFieldType.DateTime, false);

                    myNewList.Fields.Add("Sales Comments", SPFieldType.Note, false);

                    myNewList.Update();

 

                    System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Creating the view");

                    System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection strColl = new System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection();

                    strColl.Add("Title");

                    strColl.Add("First Name");

                    strColl.Add("Last Name");

                    strColl.Add("Adress");

                    strColl.Add("City");

                    strColl.Add("Latest Purchase Date");

                    strColl.Add("Sales Comments");

                    myNewList.Views.Add("Summary", strColl, @"", 100, true, true, Microsoft.SharePoint.SPViewCollection.SPViewType.Html, false);

                    myNewList.Update();

                }

            }

        }
