.Net Framework 2.0

[Pascal Bouchard]

Is the .net framework 2.0 available for XP Embedded ?

XP Pro = XP Embedded... there's not a component yet, but you can componetize
it, or you can add SW install services to your RT and try installing it
flat... if 1.1sp1 works pretty good chance that 2.0 will too.

updates issued for XP Pro usually have a lag time before they roll them to
XPE...

HTH...

My principal concern is that since it is for an embedded target, i do not
want to have both 1.1 and 2.0 framework at the same time; this means that if
i create component for it, i will have to look for all Framework 1.1
dependencies from other components and uncheck them.

I'd prefer to have the framework 2.0 integrated inside XPe components
database.

Thank you anyway! (this is a possible workaround)

Hi Pascal-
We on the XP Embedded team are looking into componentizing the 2.0
framework. While we continue our investigation I've posted up on the XP
Embedded Blog ( http://blogs.msdn.com/embedded/default.aspx ) the workaround
that John mentioned in a macro component format. While I realize that this
is not the ideal solution you're hoping for I know that this solution will
work - assuming you can take the footprint hit. Using this workaround (or
Johns' workaround) you will *not* have the 1.1 framework installed. I think
he was saying that the 1.1 framework is installable VIA the .NET Teams' MSI
setup and he speculated that 2.0 can be installed similarly. (and it can)

Anyhow - here's the link to the blog article directly. (

Cheers.

That is what I was saying, Nick... thanks for the clarification <not enough
coffee when that post was made>

Happy Turkey Day!
JC

Thank you for your efforts, i'll try this as soon as i can; i'm curious
about the footprint;

I seem to be having trouble getting this to install alongside .NET 1.1
(I want to preinstall it so I can switch over to .NET 2.0 without a big
download). But it fails with the good old 1603. He'res the part of
the log that's probably the giveaway to someone that understands it:

Hello Nick and everyone else,

Since this "work around" was posted I created a new XPe image with all the
required components to install the .NET Framework 2.0 via MSI file and we
have been using it to develop and test our product.

Soon we are going into a deployment stage and it would be very important to
have the .NET Framework componentized since our image nearly doubled the size
with all the extra components required to install the .NET 2.0 framework and
it no longer fits in our 512MB compact flash cards.

I was wondering what is the progress on this componentized version of .NET
2.0 Framework.

Thanks,
Marcelo Cortes

Hi all

I have used the .NET 2.0 macro component rev10 from the XPE team's blog
and installed the Redistributable Package (x86) on the image
afterwards. However, I miss the two configuration tools located in
Control Panel/Management. I get these two tools (.NET framework
configuration + .NET framework wizards) when I install .NET 1.1. Anyone
know how I get them in .NET 2.0?

Thanks
KM
