Component for ASP.Net

[hendrik]

Hi,

If I buy a component from 3rd party to be used in ASP.Net based on the
Framework 1.1, then when I upgraded my IIS with .Net Framework 2.0, would the
component still can be used?
The component was compiled using .Net Framework 1.1.
All my ASPX pages will be re-compiled using .Net Framework 2.0.

Can the component still be usable in the .Net Framework 2.0?
What is the condition to run it?

The short answer is yes, the component should still be able to be used.
Even if there were some freakish incompatability (unlikely) there are
various side-by-side solutions.

it may or may not.

1) if the comonponet is hosted in com+ then yes becuase you can use side by
side isolation

2) if the component is hosted by asp.net, then maybe. it will run under the
2.0 runtime. if none of the signatures of routines it calls have changed (or
their behavior) then it will probably run ok. but there is a good chance it
may not.

here is a list of the backward breaking changes:

Always contact the vendor(s) who makes the component in adance beforew you
even run it on a new release. If s/he says Yes, then use it. Otherwise don't
even try. You may be in for a surprise !

I never installed new products until all vendors have upgraded their parts
to new release. Most do if they want to stay in the business.
