Upgrading solution from WPF3 to WPF4 (.NET 3.5 to 4.5)
posted

I am upgrading a solution set from .NET 3.5 to 4.5.1.  At the same time I will be upgrading from WPF3.v12.1 to WPF4.v13.2.  Currently the dlls are referenced locally and are located with the complete solution when built.  It looks like WPF4 is store in GAC_MSIL and would be referenced there.  Is that the appropriate technique for all configurations?  Right now I have an install for this application that sets everything up for consumers... how will this work if I reference them in the GAC?  Am I missing any other options that would make an install seemless?

 

Thanks!

    Bob,

    It is up to you if you want to reference the assemblies in the GAC or locally and this is the same regardless which version you are using.  As far as deployment, how you reference the assemblies can have an impact on default settings for click once deployment though you can still customize whether the assemblies are prerequisites or included.  See How to: Specify Which Files Are Published by ClickOnce for more detail.

    Let me know if you have any questions.
