Hello

how do i make my visual studio 2005 pro support .net 3.0?
i'm using vista and i've installed the .net framework 3.0 from the control
panel->turn windows features on or off
but still i don't have winfx option when i click file -> new project
and when i try to run .net 3.0 sample i've downloaded from the net i get
error "the project type is not supported by this installion"

Thanks
 
There are optional installs for WPF, WCF and WF that add the guidance
packages, etc. WF is the only "non-beta" install ... still. WPF and WCF are
a CTP install from November or December of last year.

Sans these "guidance" packages, you are on your own with development until
Orcas (Visual Studio 2008).

You need to install the extenions for windows WF, and other couples of SDKs.
If you just want to try the .net 3.5 features, you shall install VS2008 (??)
beta.
 
Is there anyway of getting .NET to show up in Visual Studio .NET 2005 in
Windows XP?
I have installed .NET Framework 3.0 redistributable, so when I load up
Visual Studio .NET and try to create a C# project I expect to see .NET
Framework 3.0 appear in the left tab, and to see Windows Application (WPF)
appearing in Visual Studio installed templates (See
http://www.simple-talk.com/dotnet/.net-framework/getting-started-with-xaml/)

As I need to start developing XAML applications, if I'm not to be marched
off the premises with my worldly posessions in a carrier bag, so any help
given would be gratefully appreciated.

Do I need to upgrade to Vista?

Have I misunderstood the difference between .NET Framework and .NET
Framework SDK, or is one a runtime and the other a development add-on? I did
download the .NET 3.0 Framework from a tab which had SDK in it's name so I
assume it's the right one, or am I missing something?
