Is there a way to make VS2008 work with the old (vs2005 crystal reports) assemblies and not require any updates to be installed in the client machines? We have upgraded a Visual Studio 2005 .net 2.0 solution to Visual Studio 2008. The purpose is to take advantage of the IDE improvements and because it supports multi targeting. The sol...
Hi, I have a small dummy project in VS 2008, contains only the following code file using System; namespace FrameworkTest { internal static class MessageQueueNative { struct TestStructure { public IntPtr aStatus; } public static void Main() { TestStructure pMgmtProps = new TestStructure { a...
I had a VS2005 solution and wanted to get off VS2005 for the new year. I was mostly happy with the upgrade process and pleasantly surprised to see that my build scripts mostly still worked. My question is around the multi-targeting feature - I don't have .NET 3.5 installed on my servers, so I have to continue to target .NET 2.0. That ...
Yes I know that sounds a little bit crazy, but I've got .Net 3.5 deployed in the field and I'd like to use the new 4.0 compiler to target it. There are several new syntactic sugar features in the latest versions of Vb.Net and C# which I would like to use, but I am unable (just yet) to force a new version of the .Net framework and CLR on...
OK. I was going a little crazy today with a WPF project. I'm using VS2010 with .NET 4.0 and I added a simple reference to another project in my solution, added a member variable of one of the referenced types and tried to compile. Nothing. Well, something. It did not recognize the type at all. I verified at the namespace using st...
Hi guys, I'm having an odd issue with an assembly that is targeting .NET 3.5. When including this assembly via Add References/Browse to DLL - it complains: "MyAssembly.dll", or one of its dependencies, requires a later version of the .NET Framework than the one specified in the project. You can change the .NET Framework target by cli...
I created an API wrapper called Chargify.NET and I'm starting to see a pattern develop that could potentially be solved by targeting .NET 4. The issue is that as they enhance the API, I need to create more and more overloaded functions to handle one specific action (Creating a subscription, in this case). Right now, I have MANY (I think...
I'm working up a game in XCode, and I want to add a helper application that uses the main application's various classes to build the main application's data files. Specifically: The main application is a card game. I want a helper app that uses the classes such as card.m while it creates the deck.xml files for the deck of custom cards t...
Hi, I would like to make a single Android app for multiple Android versions (possibly every one of them) My problem is that I want to check what is the version of Android the app is currently running on, and dynamically load a class which is version dependent. This part should be ok. I just wonder how I can achieve that without compila...
I'm working on a 'C' code base that was written specifically for one type of embedded processor. I've written generic 'psuedo object-oriented' code for things like LEDs, GPIO lines and ADCs (using structs, etc). I have also written a large amount of code that utilizes these 'objects' in a hardware/target agnostic manner. We are now tos...
