Visual Studio Whidbey there will also be a new version of
the .net framework? 1.2 or something?

There will definitely be a new version of the .NET framework - it has
to support generics etc. I *believe* it'll be v2.0, but I don't know
for sure.

It would be Visual Studio version 8, really. It seems reasonable to
increase the version from 1.1 to 2, given that there are major changes
involved - I can't imagine many more important changes than generics,
for example...
 
The framework version has nothing to do with the IDE.

I can still run 2002 and install the framework and get al lthe benifits. Why
do people think .NET = VS.NET theyre wrong.
 
No, you can't.
Imagine generics, for example.
It probably could compile, but will certainly confuse intellisense and stuff
like that.
 
I may have miss understood or miss heard, I asked a guy who works for MS,
but.... it maybe version 2 of ASP.NET and version 1.2 of the .NET framework,
this would make more sense.

I will do a HELP ABOUT on WHIDBEY on my home PC, I don't have it running on
this PC so I cannot check.

The version you see today very well may not be the version released. It
seems that the current framework version in whidbey IS 1.2, however, over
the next year I expect that to change quite a bit, the code isn't even in
beta yet is it?

Why? The .NET framework is changing very significantly between 1.1 and
"the next version" - far more so than between 1.0 and 1.1. Why would
this *not* mean a major version bump?

(I've also just looked in a couple of preview books I've been sent, and
they refer to the framework v2.0 as well.)

Mainly because, if I remember correctly, the pdc bits have the version set
as 1.2. But considering the early state of the framework, I wouldn't
seriously belive that it will be 1.2 by delivery next year.

I can only confirm what Daniel posted. The framework shipped with Whidbey
is version 1.2. Only time will tell if they change it to 2.0 (although I
have heard that it will from various places.)
 
In the PDC alpha, it is Framework 1.2, but it will be 2.0 by release (I
think by public beta 1 (next spring)). It is much more backward compatible
than Framework 1.1 was to Framework 1.0, so no worries.

Yes, you can do this, but many of the features of the IDE are tightly
coupled to the Framework version, so the two might as well be synonomous,
esp. moving forward.
