WCF is in .net 3.0 or higher only?

[Guest]

Hello, friends,

I found some articles about WCF, and saw it used System.ServiceModel.
However, I could not find this name space in our .net 2005. Is WCF in .net
3.0 or higher only?

Thanks.

Correct.
You can download and install .NET 3.0, which is, in essesnce, an add-on to
2.0. You can then use the new features with VS 2005.

Yes - .NET 3.0 is basically .NET 2.0 + WCF, WPF, Windows Workflow
Foundation and Cardspace.
