[Sharon]

Hey.
Any of you know a tool that can help downgrade a 2.0 application to 1.1?
Thanks,
Sharon.

MSBee lets you compile your 2.0 app against a 1. framework:

If you need a complete downgrade the best way is to rebuild the project
files in VS2003.

Yeah but i was looking for a tool that may convert generics to "normal"
collections.
Building in VS2003 generates lots of errors due to generics usage and usage
of classes that
do not exist in 1.1

Sharon,

Than why do you not build this yourself., I doubt it, but in the way you
write it there is a great commercial opportunity for you.

Just my thought reading your message.

If you just need to rebuild with 1.1 then it is very easy.

If you need to rewrite the app from 2.0 to 1.1 (because you
use 2.0 specific classes), then I think you need to compiler
and fix the problems one by one.

Yep, just figured that out.
The application uses too many classes that do not exist in 1.1.
I'm not going to go through with this conversion.

Hey Cor.
It's too much work for something that will not be used that often.
Generics conversion may be easy, but think of all the 2.0 classes
that you have to find a solution for.
