Okay today, as most of you noticed Framework 4.0 has been released. I’ve been working on a project which is being built on framework 3.5. Since I want to use dynamic keyword and most of the asp.net features like Tableless Menu Control, ClientIDMode and clean web.config etc. I am kinda urging to migrate the unfinished project to 4.0 but I am little hesitating about that.Some times I think it is way better to wait for SP1.
So what do you think about it? You guys will migrate to unfinished projects or will still hang out with 3.5 for a while.
Thanks.
The .Net 4.0 runtime environment has been out for a while (mind you not RTM, but RC1 and so forth). A lot of people have tested it and I would guess that almost all of the bugs have been shaken out. There should be no problem switching at this point. They have introduced a number of items that improve .Net. Are they necessary, no, but they can make programming in .Net easier.
You can always download 4.0 locally and test it out on your project. Worse comes to worse, the project blows up and you reload it from your source control system.
What you should be aware of is that there are breaking changes in both C# and VB.Net in 4.0 runtime environment. You’ll need to watch out for those.
