Hi,
I have tried using the application.config and application.manifest files and
setting the Root Directory of the COM+ application, but this is not
affecting which version of the .NET framework is being loaded.
Note, I know the .config and .manifest files are being accessed as I ran
SysInternals.com FileMon utility and it shows they are used. However, it
seems that the <startup> tag in the .config file is not having any affect.
It works fine if I put it into the DLLHOST.exe.config, but this will then be
used for all COM+ apps.
Any ideas why this isn't working ?
By they way, what is the manifest file used for ?
Regards,
Charles.

Charles,

Have a play with the above technique and see if it works. I am not sure it
will, but its worth a try.

Thanks for the help so far on this.
Are there any web links explaining how the version of the framework to use
is determined when a process first loads a .NET DLL?
The process I am talking about specifically is DLLHOST.EXE, as we are
hosting .NET DLLs in COM+.
We would like to control the version of the framework to use in a mixed
environment (.NET 1.1 and 2.0 installed), however if we do this via
DLLHOST.exe.config file this will affect all COM+ applications on the
machine.
Any other way of doing this in code or declaratively ?
Thanks,
Charles.

Salutations Charles,
As I recall, a process can only have one instance of the CLR loaded
at any given time. If you are self-hosting the CLR (i.e. an unmanaged
C++ application using the CLR COM objects) I suppose you could
dynamically change the CLR (with the result of unloading any
AppDomains currently loaded when you switch); however, it is trivial
to specify which framework is required in the App.config file; see
MSDN for more details on this.

Bryan Porter
