command line compile to a different framework version

[Christine Nguyen]

Hi,

I have the professional version of VS.NET 2003. I know only the enterprise
version will allow compiling to a diff version of the framework, but I
thought maybe there was a command-line feature in the professional version
that might allow me to do the same thing. Does anyone know?

Thanks,

You can use the command-line compilers anytime you want. They are part of
the framework, not Visual Studio. Install the 1.0 framework, and use it's
commandline compilers, you will have an assembly targeting the 1.0
framework.

There is also a config setting you can set to make your 1.1-targeted
assembly run under the 1.0 framework.
