.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / General / June 2005Should I use VS 2003 or 2005 for IDE? I have both.
Have questions I am getting back into developing and need some opinions. Should I use VS 2003 or 2005 for IDE? I have both. I understand I can install both on same machine. True or False I have a current Dot net 1.1 environment. Can I deploy VS 2005 applications to it if I use the VS 2005 Beta IDE? I have a hosting service that is providing me a Dot net environment. Hi William, - Notice that VS 2005 is currently in Beta 2 and should not be used for production. I guess that it won´t be released until Q4 2005. - You can install VS 2003 and VS 2005 Beta 2 side by side on the same computer, but do it at your own risk, because VS 2005 is beta. It would be wise to use a different partition on hard disk, Virtual PC 2004, or make a partition backup prior to installing using Ghost or Acronis True Image or similar tools.

VS 2005 can be used in production. If fact, many companies do use it. It is 'go live' Beta. Please check go live license here http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/vs2005/golive/ As for deployment, VS 2005 targets .NET 2.0 so most probably your application won't run on 1.1 unless you are very careful and don't use any of the 2.0-specific features.

IMHO, it's a bit precipitate to use a Beta 2 for production, maybe with a Final Beta or Release Candidate, but... About the other quesion, according to this document: Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 and 2.0 (Beta) Compatibility http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/default.aspx?pull=/library/en-us/dnnetdep /html/netfxcompat.asp "2.0 stand-alone application (Web or Microsoft Windows client) fails with computer with 1.1", it does not matter if you use or not 2.0 features. Is it correct? -- Best regards, Carlos J. Quintero MZ-Tools: Productivity add-ins for Visual Studio .NET, VB6, VB5 and VBA You can code, design and document much faster.

VS 2005 solution cannot be opened in VS 2003, but it is possible to either maintain two solutions or build externally using make files. I did work on my own ASP.NET 1.1 web site using VS 2005 Beta 1 and was successful, but process was not suitable for novice users. Thanks Mikhail Arkhipov (Microsoft) -- This post is provided 'AS IS' with no warranties and confers no rights So we can say I can use the VS 2005 and just compile project for 1.1. until 2.0 is fully release. My provider is supporting it. > On 6/7/05 9:16, in article #WaEJx3aFHA.3032@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl, "Carlos J. > Quintero [.NET MVP]" <carlosq@NOSPAMsogecable.com> wrote: [quoted text clipped - 50 lines] > Mikhail Arkhipov (Microsoft) > -- This post is provided 'AS IS' with no warranties and confers no rights Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
