Hey Guys....

I'm a junior developer working for a ebusiness. We use the **LLBLGen Pro v. 2.0.0.0 Final **-- released on: March 21st, 2007 We're currently developingon in VB.NET on the .NET Framework 2.0 in conjunction with MS SQL Server 2005 and it works amazing....

We are upgrading to .NET Framework 3.5. The current version of LLBLGen doesn't allow for generation of code for anything higher than Framework 2.0. I've looked it up on the website....LLBLGen v2.5 has support for '.NET 2.0+' wich means: .NET 2.0/3.0/3.5

My question is if I will encounter any problems or disadvantages with my version of the LLBLGen when upgrading to Framework 3.5.....as I can Not specifically choose anything higher than

Thx in advance for all comments and replies....

Heinz

Hello,

The current version of LLBLGen doesn't allow for generation of code for anything higher than Framework 2.0.

Correct me if I'm wrong but everything that exists in 2.0 also exists in 3.5, so you should not have any problem compiling the code in 3.5. I think that this option to target a specific framework in llblgen is mostly about knowing if it can use generics and nullable types which are not supported in 1.x.

To make a test, open your vs2008 solution, change the target framework to 3.5 in the properties and build it.

Ok ... Clear enough.

I'll try it out with a downscaled smaller project. Thx for your reaction....

V2.5 (which is out for a while already) has support for .NET 3.5 as target platform. It will then generate vs.net 2008 project files. The code will use the .net 2.0 ormsupportclasses and I don't expect problems, except with Sqlserver CE Compact desktop edition v3.5, as they have changed the evaluation order of the parameters....

A Haaaaaaaa......

This sheds a whole new light on the subject...

I've tried the following: - Opening the LLBLGen generated files (.NET 2.0) in VS 2008 and performing the automatic conversion. This adds a few extra folders and an UpgradeLog.xml log file (From this point on the sln can nog longer be opend with VS 2005 or lower)

I figure if we use LLBLGen v2.5 it will produce the same results as taking .NET 2.0 files and converting these with VS 2008....

Pls correct me if i'm wrong

And ones more ...Thx guys for your quick reaction,

V2.5 will generate vs.net 2008 project files for you, so you don't have to convert
