.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / General / March 2008VS 2005 and LINQ
Hi, Is it possible to add LINQ functionality to Visual Studio 2005 ?? Best Regards Peter Hi! Disclaimer, this isn't a real solve of your Problem: > Is it possible to add LINQ functionality to Visual Studio 2005 ?? At first LINQ uses some techniques that were introduced in C# 3.0, mainly extension methods, which were not present in C# 2.0. Second there were new namespaces added to .NET that make LINQ possible, System.Linq System.Data.Linq System.Xml.Linq These namespaces are new to .NET since Version 3.5. So it would be necessary to install .NEt 3.5, and tell VS to use the new C# - Compiler. I don't really know if this is possibe. One thing may be a problem, that is inform VS about the new syntax. If it'd be a good piece of Software the syntaxhighlighter asks the complier that is used which keywords are supported. Maybe these points help you investigating the issue :-) Best regrads, Nicolas But is LINQ only available through framework 3.5 ?? /Peter > Hi! > [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > Best regrads, > Nicolas Hi! Strange, I thought I allready posted a reply.. > But is LINQ only available through framework 3.5 ?? I'm not that guru, but AFAIK yes. Best regrads, Nicolas > Hi, > > Is it possible to add LINQ functionality to Visual Studio 2005 ?? > > Best Regards > Peter No. LINQ requires changes to the language and runtime. LINQ needs a C# 3.0/VB9 compiler to understand the syntax, and it references the .Net 3.5 runtime. AFAIK, none of these are possible in Visual Studio 2005. D There was this preview release back in 2006 (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=1e902c21-340c-4d13-9f04 -70eb5e3dceea&displaylang=en) but it doesn't seems to be a part of VS2005 anymore !! /Peter > AFAIK, none of these are possible in Visual Studio 2005. > > D Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
