The shock of the week -- how could I be running the old version of the framework?

I just called:
System.Environm ent.Version.ToS tring()
and
RuntimeEnvironm ent.GetSystemVe rsion()
as a little experiment.

Both report that I'm running 1.0.3705.288. However, my IDE is VS.NET 2003
and I never installed VS.NET 2002 on this machine. I don't recall if
something else has ever forced me to install framework 1.0 on this machine
(obviously, it's on here, but I just don't recall how it got here)... but
what is shocking is that version 1.0 is the default and that all the
projects I'm building are using 1.0. I didn't previously realize this.

How can I correct this? Is there a reason for it? Can anyone explain what I
overlooked?

Thanks.

I just did a test as well and got what I expected....1.0 on a 1.0 build, 1.1
on a 2003 build. The only thing I can think of that would cause this is the
fact that you can build 1.0 projects in 2003, but you usually have to set it
explicitly. Check the Assembly Properties and under Common Properties,
select Build. There's a seperator on the bottom of the form titled
Supported Runtimes. It says, "By Default, add.config supports running on
..NET Framework 1.1" however, there is a change button next to it. Verify
that you are getting this and try changing it to 1.1 if it's not set. I'm
guessing that something in app.config is set to 1.0 (weird things happen and
perhaps this got set somehow) or somehow the default was changed. When you
select the Change button, you'll see three option buttons indicating 1.1,
1.0 or both 1.0 and 1.1..

HTH,

BTW, in addition to Steve's comment, if you have all of the Windows updates
on your machine, you'll have both Frameworks installed.

Thanks Bill. This is the strangest thing I've seen in a while. BTW, I'm
running W2K. I installed VS.NET 2003 on a fresh OS install several months
ago. I've never changed the supported runtimes property, but I'll go take a
look at it. I appreciate your tips.

What release of Windows XP has the .NET Framework built in? I have a whole
lab full of Windows XP machines that definitely do not have it built in, and
neither did my laptop.

I'm working on the issues around a laptop..... Compaq.. with XP sp1 from
the factory...... already has framework loaded on it...... seems like it
doesn't want to talk to a 2000AS server..... but another desktop
machine... XP sp1 talks just fine...... Actually, this situation is
posted in several of the other NGs, on Wed of this week......

The machines are at work..... I will check the configurations tomorrow if
I think of it..... and post the findings....... I could be in error...
but pretty sure I saw both frameworks on the machine...... It was one of
the big 'pluses'... the runtime was already on the machines.....

As for 2003... how the framework is laced into the calling stacks is very
different..... it eliminates several layers of the calling stack to get to
the actual call..... Hence the claim... do more with less..... it is
supposed to run faster....

I can't say that I have seen that yet...... management won't give me a
2003 server :(

From a press release:
The key features in the new operating system image include the NET
Framework, several security updates and support for IPv6.

Also see:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/tre...asp?frame=true

This section provides a conceptual overview of how Windows XP lays the
foundation for an important part in the future of computing: the Microsoft
..NET Platform, which aims to provide a new level of connectivity that lets
you get more out of networking and the Internet.

And...
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/tre...asp?frame=true

Of course, none of that guarantees what's actually on your machines...
