Compatibility of asp.net 2.0 http modules with 3.5

[Scott]

I am using asp.net 2.0 on an older Win2k system. I have written an
http module.
In general, will this http module run on a win2k8 with asp.nt 3.5?

Thanks
Scott

Yes. 3.0 and 3.5 are essentially just a bunch of new assemblies and tools
on top of 2.0.

Parroting Jeorn a bit, I agree.

There are a few things that have been changed in 3.5 (to the 2.0 libs), but
I don't know of any that have made functionality changes that should break
anything in HTTP modules. Recompiling as 3.5 might be a good idea, as there
are some perf tweaks in the 3.5 framework (have not checked if there are
any in the compilers, but it would not surprise me), but if breaking is the
issue, I believe you will be fine.
