There are two separate mechanisms provided by the .NET class library - XmlSerializer and SoapFormatter/BinaryFormatter. Microsoft uses XmlSerializer for Web Services, and SoapFormatter/BinaryFormatter for remoting. Both are available for use in your own code. It depends. XmlSerializer has severe limitations such as the requirement that the target class has a parameterless constructor, and only public read/write properties and fields can be serialized.

The runtime supports Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, Windows 2000, NT4 SP6a and Windows ME/98. Windows 95 is not supported. Some parts of the framework do not work on all platforms - for example, ASP.NET is only supported on XP and Windows 2000/2003. Windows 98/ME cannot be used for development. IIS is not supported on Windows XP Home Edition, and so cannot be used to host ASP.NET. However, the ASP.NET Web Matrix web server does run on XP Home. The .NET Compact Framework is a version of the .

FreeFlow currently supports version 1.1 of the .NET Framework. Support for version 2 will be released in the near future. Note, you can use the FreeFlow assemblies in a .NET 2 application but it does not take advantage of the new features in .NET 2.

Serialization is the process of converting an object into a stream of bytes. Deserialization is the opposite process, i.e. creating an object from a stream of bytes. Serialization/Deserialization is mostly used to transport objects (e.g. during remoting), or to persist objects (e.g. to a file or database).

The Microsoft .NET Framework is a component of the Microsoft Windows? operating system used to build and run Windows-based applications. For developers, the .NET Framework makes it easy to rapidly create powerful software that maximizes performance, scalability, opportunities for integration, reliability, security, and the end-user experience, while minimizing the costs of deployment and management. Applications built for the .NET Framework (BodyTrans, for example) require that the .

Really whatever way works best for you. Ex. You can have your users install the .NET Framework before using "ClickOnce" or use management tools like SMS to push out the .NET Framework across your enterprise. To help with deployment, Visual Studio provides...

The Microsoft .NET framework is a framework for software that is developed by Microsoft. Typically in the past, software ran directly off of your operating system. Now, the framework runs on your operating system and and software runs on the framework. The .NET framework should not cause any harm to your computer. We specifically run on the .NET framework v1.1. On the Microsoft Windows Update site you should see the .NET framework as one of the recommended download. You can also download the .

Version 1.1.4322.2032 or better is needed and it can be downloaded from MS .NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable Package. Once you have installed the Redistributable Package you will need to download and install Service Pack 1.

You can check to see if you already have the .NET Framework installed by clicking Start on your Windows desktop, selecting Control Panel, and then double-clicking the Add or Remove Programs icon. When that window appears, scroll through the list of applications. If you see Microsoft .NET Framework 1.0 or Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 listed, the .Net Framework is already installed and you do not need to install it again.

You can check the useragent value in your server side code or in javascript on the html page (hint... see the Publish.htm page that VS generates). The useragent string will contain the version of the .NET Framework installed on that client.

The New Alzheimer’s Center will accept Medi-Cal, Veteran’s Administration reimbursement, and private payments from individuals on a sliding scale basis to help pay for program costs. Operating Budget has been developed, which shows the New Alzheimer’s Center will be self-sustaining from the day it opens its doors.

Yes, in the System.Diagnostics namespace. There are two main classes that deal with tracing - Debug and Trace. They both work in a similar way - the difference is that tracing from the Debug class only works in builds that have the DEBUG symbol defined, whereas tracing from the Trace class only works in builds that have the TRACE symbol defined. Typically this means that you should use System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine for tracing that you want to work in debug and release builds, and System.

Yes - if you have a managed application, it will require the framework to be present in order to run. This is like requiring the Win32 libraries to be present in order to run Windows applications. Pre-compiling your code using ngen doesn't affect this requirement.

Our OCR.Net Component works in both the 1.1 and 2.0 Framework. Two versions of the component are provided, one compiled in VS 2003 and one compiled in VS 2005.
