.NET Framework 3.5

Timbo · 23-12-2007, 10:08 AM

Can you/will you be adding support to Microsofts latest framework?
If so when?

WhiskyFudge · 23-12-2007, 10:54 AM

Tim,

You'll find that .net 3.0 is already on some if not all of the servers, and those that it's not on it can be put on.

.net 3.5 is happening but it's waiting for either myself or Paul to get our acts together and find time to sort out the security for it and other implications of running it on a shared environment.

Could you transfer/install it on the servers I'm using for CAT446

paulredpath · 23-12-2007, 03:30 PM

Tim,

We will be rolling it out over all servers in the first 2 weeks of Jan

Timbo · 23-12-2007, 04:34 PM

Paul,

That's good news

What about my sites currently, could you enable .NET 3 now for me?

WhiskyFudge · 23-12-2007, 04:40 PM

Out of interest what in .net 3 are you wanting to use? Most new features are windows forms based or not allowed by the security policy.

I know .net 3 to be working on cherry - I have a site using it. Otherwise might be easier to wait until Paul does the .net 3.5 update?

Really? I went to a meeting about that and was distinctly un-impressed. I quite quickly came to the conclusion that the technology was useless outside of enterprise. Although was impressed with how well they seem (from the demo's any who) to have implemented the theory’s.

Thus I'd be interested to know how you’re using it. (Feel free to take this to a PM if you want to keep it out of the public domain)

WWF should work with Catalyst2 security policy. I haven't tested that it does, but if it doesn't let me know and I should be able to sort it for you.

.net 3.5 is now available

Hi,

Is the Microsoft ASP.NET 3.5 Extensions Preview installed on your servers ?

Microsoft have it for download at http://www.asp.net/downloads/3.5-extensions/. It adds model-view-controller (MVC) support to the existing ASP.NET 3.5 runtime which I would like to use for a new web project I am soon to start.

Thanks for your help.

Regards
Michael

No they are not. I think it is unlikley that they will be until Microsoft releases them or provides a "Go-Live" licence for them.

paulredpath · 06-02-2008, 11:23 AM

Yes, as Jason says we cant install previews onto production servers I am afraid. I will keep an eye on them though....

WhiskyFudge · 14-02-2008, 06:30 PM

Michael,

I've just seen an article saying that the upcoming release of the MVC framework will be run able in a partial trust environment, thus you'll be able to use it on Catalyst2's servers. The release is going to coincide with the MIX08 conference.

Hallo folks.

I've got a quick query about the MVC. Do you use IIS6 or IIS7? As far as I can tell, we only get the really pretty URLs on IIS7 with it's ability to route URLs automagicaly.

I think I'll start developing applications for this - you guys sound like you're chomping at this bit too...

WhiskyFudge · 04-06-2008, 10:53 AM

At the moment all windows servers run in IIS6. IIS7 is in the pipeline but with nothing planned for the near future.

I'll double check but I think you can get MVC to do the pretty URL's in IIS6, but it may require some admin modifications to your site. I'll double check this in a bit.

IIS7 has a public URL rewriting engine (the same one built into ASP.net) which IIS6 doesn't have. You can however get IIS6 to use ASP.net engine, however I'm not sure if MVC supports this.

Hope that helps
