Where can I get December 2005 version now?

Hello, please where can I download Dec 2005 version now? All links redirect me to June 2006 version which doesn't work with Smart Client Software Factory right now.

Thank you,
Borek

When you install GAX June 2006, it will install binding redirects that will redirect calls to the Dec 2005 assemblies to the new versions. However these assembly redirects only work for the compiled guidance packages - Visual Studio won't pick these up when you compile the source. To get around this, you can either update the references in the guidance package solution to point to the new assemblies, or you can keep the existing references and change the Specific Version property to False.

Take a look at the GAX release notes for more details on backwards compatibility.

Thanks

Tom

See my profile ... send me an email and I can send the ones I have if you cannot get them direct from MS.

The 1.1 GAT should be backwards compatible with v.1.0 guidance packages. Can you tell us which is the error you're getting?

Hello, I followed the instructions in GettingStarted.rtf file which comes with SCSF but everytime I try to build any solution, this error occurs:

Error 1 Assembly 'Microsoft.Practices.RecipeFramework.VisualStudio.Library, Version=1.0.60429.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' uses 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating, Version=8.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' which has a higher version than referenced assembly 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\PublicAssemblies\Microsoft.Practices.RecipeFramework.VisualStudio.Library.dll SmartClientDevelopment

I think I have right versions of every other required package (EntLib, CAB) and the only thing that is newer than requested is GAX/T.

Before doint what you suggest, I had tens of errors. I found the "Specific Version" setting and that really helped with almost all errors - except the one I posted. I don't know how to overcome this but I heard that the new SCSF is only one week away so maybe it'll be better to wait...
