Any experience on .NET-Version-Requirements?

Unread post by GSus42 »

Update: it seems for 7.10 API-Libraries, .NET 4.5 is the requirement.


Hi,

I try to develop a prototype for using the API of TopSolid 7.10 with VisualStudio 2012.

In the TopSolid'Design Automation Guide no concrete .NET-Version is recommended.

Does anyone have experience with different .NET-Frameworks and possible consequences?


Wikipedia states that the 2.0 and 4.0-Versions respectively have changed the "Common Language Runtime"(CLR).

So is it playing safe, using 3.5 (which supports the older CLR-specs)?
Or is it safer using 4.0 since it is using the new CLR-Specs Missler build their new 7.x-API/Engine around (if even so)?

Hi!

I use Visual Studio 2013 with .net 4.5, both the API and Postprocessor works fine!

In one PDF Missler speak about that VS 2013 is the official supported Version...

Thank you.

It seems you are right in using .NET 4.5
I just tried using 4.0. At first it seemed ok, but as I tried the first build, VISTUDIO2012 says something along the lines of:
"The primary reference to" TopSolid.Cad.Design.Automating, TopSolid.Cad.Drafting.Automating and TopSolid.Kernel.Automating respectively "... could not be used since it got build with .NET 4.5 and that is higher than the Target-Framework 4.0." (not word-by-word, translated from German)

So 4.5 seems to be the requirement for TopSolid 7.10, at least without hacking around.^^
