.NET Framework compatibility

Hi guys!

I am a little bit new about .NET so my questions might not make much sense...

As far as I know AlgoStudio and PTMC are using .NET Framework 3.5. They are both build against this specific version, right? What does it mean? That all my strategies have to be build against the same version of the .NET Framework? Consequently I can only use functionality up to this version. Nothing from 4.0 and higher versions.

I am just wondering if there is any chance to add some kind of "compatibility" to use higher versions of the .NET Framework when developing components.

PD:

As a side question... just curiosity... if newer frameworks keep retro compatibility why to stick to the 3.5?

Thanks!

Hi dreyes. This week we started moving our platform to 4.5 framework. I think after 2-3 weeks you will be able to use higher frameworks in your strategies.

PS: some of our clients still use 3.5 framework, furthermore some use win XP, and 4.5 is not option for them

That's good news! I am looking to hear about it :).

Thanks again for your reply. It made my day :).

PS: I didn't know that frameworks required specific versions of operating systems. Thanks for the information.
