.NET Version Problems

[Guest]

Hello,

I have a C# windows application that I need to push to a server but this server has .NET Framework version 1.0 whereas the version on my pc is 1.1. Question: How can I make version 1.1 run on a machine with version 1.0? Reinstalling .NET Framework is not an option.

Thanks for all your help )

You don't need to reinstall anything. The .NET Framework versions can run
side-by-side. The Global Assembly Cache helps versioning in .NET thus ending
"DLL hell". If you can't install .NET 1.1 on the server (again, without
having to remove 1.0), then you can try running your .NET 1.1 application on
it. So long as you haven't used any new features (classes, methods, etc.)
and wrote a CLS-compliant application (or - if not - avoided using
reflection to access private members that may be different now), it should
run without problem. The .NET Frameworks are also written to be backward
compatible as much as possible.
