Re: [Firebird-net-provider] .NET 4 support

[Jiří Činčura]

OK, there doesn't seem to be any more discussion around this. And
because, as stated before, MS is not going to support 4.0 (and also 4.7
is now out for all systems), the minimum supported version in next major
version will be 4.5.2. If somebody wants the 4.0 the previous versions
are always available. 

Any questions?

Hi Gerdus


The question is... should "we" be affected by "your" difficulties upgrading 500 
pcs.  I have the same problem, it is even thousands and all running on 
different locations, but we try to manage.  (Failing miserably, but that is 
another story)

I agree with your opinion that you can stay on current implementation and not 
migrate away to all the new features.  If it works, it works, no?


Besides new features and code clean ups... what with bugfixes though.  I don't 
think we can keep on expecting from Jiri to backport all fixes to all version 
all the time.

I rather see Jiri working on the new event system then to keep 4.0 code running.


kind regards

I am still using 4.0 due to the difficulty upgrading 500+ computers and a 
painful amount of customers still on XP. The downside of desktop software.
That being said the current code is stable and fast in our experience so would 
be happy to stay on the current version until we are ready to upgrade .net 
version.

makes me wonder who here is using strictly 4.0, still one year after it's no 
longer supported. ;) It would make my life easier to drop .NET 4 support and 
invest my resources to moving forward faster. 4.5.2+ would still be supported, 
of course.
