.NET Framework 2.0

[João Carlos Clementoni Silva]

Hi All!

I have a request to build a web system using .NET Framework 2.0. My customer is a big company and they don't allow me use .NET 3.5 or high.

So, I was thinking, what should I do to build a system with good design using .NET 2.0? 

My main doubts are:

- Should I use old versions of Castle Project stack? (by the way, where can I download the last stable version for .NET 2.0?)

- Should I use only native components of .NET like WebForms, ADO.NET

- Should I use webforms with old versions of NHibernate and other components

This system will be little big.

Thank you!

João Carlos

2.0? any reason besides tool support? I'd say that 3.5 is the least
you should use, but if that is not possible, then I'd go with castle,
nhibernate.

I'm not finding last Castle Project stable release for .NET 2.0. Where can I download it?

[Jonathon Rossi]

IIRC the last .NET 2.0 compatible source is available in the net-2.0-trunk branch of our old subversion dump.
https://github.com/castleproject/castle-READONLY-SVN-dump/tree/net-2.0-trunk

However, that said I personally wouldn't start a new especially large project using old software and old tools which have limited support. Be aware that any defects you encounter you'll need to patch this source code yourself, as we no longer maintain that version. This will be the same for NHibernate, and Microsoft will likely provide little support if you are using VS2005 rather than 2008 or 2010 for .NET 2.0 development.

Thank Luis and Jonathon for yours advices. 

I know about the cons of use .NET 2.0 in a new project.

I would like to use .NET 4.0 but this company, just has .NET 2.0 installed on theirs production environment. To change for NET 4.0, they need run tests on a lot of systems they have and approve it.

About the net-2-0-trunk, it is for Visual Studio 2008? Can I open it with VS 2008 and generate all binaries for .NET 2.0?

[Jonathon Rossi]

That branch seems to have project files for VS2005 and VS2008, not sure how well maintained the VS2005 project files were at that stage, since the VS2005 root solution file has been removed.

See the "How to build.txt" file for some more details on building the source, however running "nant release rebuild" should build both 2.0 and 3.5 into the "build" directory. You may have to hack the build scripts a bit since it has code to try getting the subversion revision number which won't work.
