Does ServiceStack work with ASP.NET MVC 5 and .NET 4.5? Calling the service from my ASP.NET MVC project. It appears System.Net, Version 5.0.5.0 is called by ServiceStack.Interfaces 3.9.60.0. I can't find System.Net, Version 5.0.5.0 while looking up references.
I have a .net 3.5 application with mvc2.0 used.
Will it work in a server with 4.0 with mvc2.0 with out .net 3.5 framework?
Do I need to make any changes in config?
I am currently using the servicestack powerpack (ServiceStackController) in an ASP.NET MVC 3 project but I am now considering upgrading to VS2012, .NET 4.5 and ASP.NET MVC 4. Has anybody tested whether the powerpack works with ASP.NET MVC 4?
Ok, I have tested it myself now and it seems to work fine.
A lot of release notes for Visual Studio 2012 talk about .NET 4.5 and MVC4, but I can't tell if MVC4 is actually part of the .NET 4.5 release. Anybody know for sure? I would love not to have to install MVC separately on my server.
No, ASP.NET MVC 4 is baked into VS2012, exactly the same way ASP.NET MVC 3 was baked into VS2010 but not part of .NET 4.0 (there was a separate download that you could install on your servers). But there will also be a separate download of ASP.NET MVC 4 for VS2010 SP1 in which you obviously won't be able to use the .NET 4.5 specific features, such as async/await, but you will still be able to develop an ASP.NET MVC 4 application and target .NET 4.0.
ASP.NET MVC has made a point of NOT being tied to a particular .NET incarnation. That way, you can use the latest and greatest irrespective of what .NET version your hosting provider uses.
If the provider supports ASP.NET, that's all you need to know.
For this precise purpose, ASP.NET MVC is bin-deployable, meaning you can deploy the MVC dlls yourself, along your application - without requiring special rights from the hosting provider.
Phil Haack has a great article describing how to bin-deploy MVC3. There's even tooling support in VS for this scenario!
I assume the workflow for newer MVC incarnations is similar.
I have a solution with several Silverlight Class Libraries and a Silverlight Application in it. I was originally built in VS 2008 with Silverlight 3.0. What changes do I need to make so that it builds using Silverlight 4.0? I already have VS 2010 and the Silverlight 4.0 toolkit installed.
When I opened the project it seems to have upgraded to .NET 4.0 in my ASP.NET Web Project but not the Silverlight projects. Pretty sure they are still building against .NET 3.5 and Silverlight 3.0.
Thanks.
Since VS2010 supports Silverlight mutlitargeting as well as .NET multitargeting, you have the option in each Silverlight Project Page to upgrade the target type from Silverlight 3 to Silverlight 4.
