Hi,
Is there a way to product a PIA using the VS2005 tools that can be used from
VS2003? The use case is this. A product that exposes COM interfaces for
customization is upgraded to .NET 2.0 and the developers upgrade to VS2005.
When they build the new version the PIAs are all created as .NET 2.0
assemblies.
This is a legacy product, so there are customers out there with
customizations already written using VS2003 and some of them may still be
using VS2003 as a development environment. Once they install the new
release, things start breaking. There must be a simple way to handle this,
but I can't find it on the net. I realize you could just build the interop
assemblies using VS2003 tools, but who wants to keep the old version hanging
around on the build machine.
Thanks
Steven
