Hello

We have quite a large project using llbl 2.5 (adapter) and we have recently moved it over to VS 2008 and now want to upgrade to llbl 2.6 using the 3.5 dlls.

For some reason I am finding this very difficult, and the documentation doesn't appear to help. I have updated all the dlls that are referenced in the project to the 3.5 ones and opened the lgp file with 2.6 and set the .net version drop down to 3.5 and regenerated. This caused all the referenced dlls in my project to revert back to the .net 2 ones.

I have a feeling I need to update the template, but I don't know how to do this. Obviously I am missing something, though what it is is completely eluding me.

Could you give me some advice?

Thanks

Bex

You refer to .net 3.5 versions of assemblies, which assemblies exactly? Did you generate code on top of the v2.5 code base?

The code generator doesn't alter any reference to any assembly, you've to do that manually.

Yes I did generate the code on top.

The 3 main projects EntityLayer, SchemaImporter and SqlServerDataLayer all have a reference to sd.llblgen.pro.ormsupportclasses.net20. I deleted this reference and added the SD.LLBLGen.Pro.ORMSupportClasses.CF35.dll and SD.LLBLGen.Pro.LinqSupportClasses.NET35.dll (as I wasn't sure which I needed) but regenerating recreated these projects and put them back as they were with the sd.llblgen.pro.ormsupportclasses.net20.

I know this sounds silly.. but its completely regening the whole projects.

You should keep referring to sd.llblgen.pro.ormsupportclasses.net20, as there's no specific .NET 35 build, as that's not necessary. The CF35 build is for compact framework 3.5. See: http://www.llblgen.com/documentation/2.6/hh_goto.htm#Using%20the%20generated%20code/gencode_compiling.htm

Could you check for me please if you set the reference to the ORMSupportClasses .NET 2.0, and regenerate, that it keeps referring to that same dll ? Here we generate our unittest projects on top of existing code all the time and it works OK.

That did the trick! I didn't realise that I needed the new .net 2 ones as well.

Thank you
