I have a huge project written in .Net 2 which contains many forms. it works with v8.1.
The project is consisted of dlls loaded in reflection.
can I integrate it into a .Net4 project which uses .v12.2?
Will there be a conflict between the versions?
Alternatively, could I simply change references to .v12.2?
Is there backward compatibility, so the dlls that work with v8.1, will seamlessly work with v12.2 ?
Hello,
I am just checking about the progress of this issue. Let me know if you need my further assistance on this issue.
Thank you for using Infragistics Components.
Hi,
Thank you for posting in our forums.
Generally the .NET 4 is backwards compatible and you can use a .NET 2 project along with other .NET 4 projects. Also you can upgrade the Infragistics components in your project to use the newer 12.2 version (and you will be able to use the new features that are introduced between 8.1 and 12.2).
We have a list of the breaking changes introduced in each version (in most cases they won’t affect you), which you can find here:

For upgrading your projects we recommend using the version utility. More information on this utility you can find here:

Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
