Calling a .NET 3.5 assembly in LabVIEW (how much trouble am I in now?)

[JÞB]

Thanks for the clairification,  I thought this only worked on built apps

Hello Everyone,

To clairfy further, that help topic is for loading a PREVIOUS version of .NET.  That will only work for loading frameworks earlier than 2.0.  Again our .NET components are built using the CLR version 2.0.  This was not updated by Microsoft for .NET 3.0 and 3.5; therefore, most assemblies that were build using .NET 3.0 and 3.5 would work in LabVIEW because they relied on the CLR version 2.0

Microsoft updated the CLR in .NET 4.0 so we cannot load a basic assembly in LabVIEW because the CLR is of a later version.

Here is a KnowledgeBase article that describes the issue in a little bit more detail.
