dotnet framework 2.0

[Bonj]

If I download the 2005 beta express versions and install them, will the .NET
framework 2.0 (beta) replace the existing 1.1 (non-beta) that's on my
machine? What I mean is will I have two versions side by side - i.e. is the
beta marked as 'this version is not allowed to replace an existing one' but
a non-beta isn't marked with that, is what I'm trying to get at.

And if 1.1 is installed over the top of 1.0, then does it replace it, and if
so, does an application developed with 1.0 still run against 1.1? When 2.0
(non-beta) is out, will it then replace 1.1 and will 1.1 applications still
run against it?

Thanks

Bonj,

No, they will not replace each other. The versions of the framework
(even the betas) all have different version ids, and run side-by-side.

Hope this helps.

Hello Bonj

No they will work fine side-by-side. I have been running C# Express for a few months along with VS 2003 and I have been doing development in both with no problems.

So if I take an application developed against 1.0 and run it on a computer
that has already got 1.1, but don't install 1.0 aswell, will the app still
run?

I believe you need 1.0 installed to run a 1.0 developed app.

A 1.0 app should work with the 1.1 or 2.0 runtime. YMMV. Just as as app
designed for Windows 95 should normally run on XP, sometimes it doesn't.
