What happened to .NET 3.0 in Longhorn? | The Coffeehouse

gdesroches

I recall hearing (from the .NET show I believe) about .NET 3.0 being built into Longhorn. Now I'm hearing it will ship with 2.0. Was 3.0 suppose to be 2.0 with WPF, WCF, and WinFS, or was there going to be more until they scaled back?

I've never heard that. I think we need a better source than "I recall hearing"... Smiley

First I've ever heard of .NET 3.0.

I think he may be referring to Orcas. Whidbey was supposed to be the release to go with Yukon, Orcas would go with Longhorn. But with the delays in getting Whidbey out the door, I don't think we'll see Orcas when Vista is released.

This is the original developer tools roadmap that places Orcas with Longhorn: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/productinfo/roadmap.aspx

I remember hearing that WinFX would be successor to the .NET Framework 2.0 on Windows Vista. Is this true or am I confused?

I think this is just the confusion thread...
