I saw one of the older posts (by Marcus I believe), that said BVC5 compiles with visual studio 2008. . . so I am wondering, is there any reason not to use visual studio 2008 with BVC if we have it?
Also. . . how does it affect BVC5 if we compile using .NET 3.5?
Just curious if there are any bugs or anomalies.
And finally, I was wondering when/if the dev team was considering switching BVC to 3.5.
Thanks. |

We are using Visual Studio 2008 internally and it works perfectly. You can target .net 2.0 (which is what we do) but the software will compile 100% against .net 3.5. The .net framework version 3.0 and 3.5 are just "extra" features on .net 2.0 and are pretty much 100% compatible.

Nice. . . I've been using 2008 at home and I love the new IDE features. . . I'm going to switch over at work soon.
Thanks :) |

I make a backup of web.config before I let VS2008 convert a web site to 3.5. The converter adds dozens of lines to web.config, which I don't need or use. |

Solution files will also be updated to be incompatible with 2005 but project files are still compatible. We keep old 2005 solution files on hand to ship with the software.
