Hi guys,
I am involved in migrating a legacy application built in .NET 1.1 to .NET 4.
Is UIP (User Interface Process) still available in the latest released of EnLib 5? If no, what are my options?

Hi,
Assuming you are talking (as in the Title of your question) about the User Interface Process Application Block, there have been no new official releases since 2004, as you can read here.
The options you are talking about really depend on the usage UIP was given. Take into account that there is no "easy/fast option" (and I really mean that), as other assets you will find will probably do things very different to UIP.
As the goal of UIP was mainly to provide a frame in which "navigation-like" applications could be created, you could use WWF. Other assets p&p created for decoupled applications are SCSF, WCSF and more recently Prism.

Is it possible to use use the latest available version of UIP in .NET 4?

I have never tried that. You would have to migrate the blocks and check for yourself. If you have the chance I would still recommend using one of the newer assets

I would also prefer doing the same. But I have to be sensitive to the client's budget.
