We have a web application that runs on IIS using .NET 2.0, designed and built using Visual Studio 2005.
We are going to upgrade to .NET 3.5 and start using Visual Studio 2008. Here are my questions:
- I note that the runtime is still based on 2.0.
When I downloaded the solution in Visual Studio 2008, I was asked to convert, and I did it. Then I checked the target structure for the default project and was set to 3.5. However, all other target frames for other projects are set to 2.0.
Do I need to manually set target frameworks from 2.0 to 3.5 for each of the projects in the solution?
- Are there any "gotcha" that might think about converting web applications?
As far as I understand, moving from 1.1 to 2.0 was a much more difficult problem due to large changes in runtime and webpage changes. However, from 2.0 to 3.5 is not such a big change.
I was not in my current work for this update, but I understand that there was a problem with some textarea tags using an obsolete attribute that could not function correctly after the update.
Can anyone think of any similar issues that I might run into?
- Any other problems or thoughts that anyone made after they made such a conversion?
Thank you, I appreciate the input.
