Enterprise Library 2006
-
Hi, Can anyone tell me how to open Enterprise library, and if it can be opened and used with C# Express? It seems to have come in .sln and it won't won't open in C# Express. Do I need VS2005 to be able to view the files?? Where can I get valuable information on how to use the new Enterprise library. I have never used it before and would like to use it now. I am a total dummy when it come to Enterprise library, so beginners tutorials are most welcome. Regards, ma se

The Enterprise Library solution contains Solution Folders. These are only supported in VS2005 so you will not be able to open the solution in C# Express. From memory I think there is an option in the installer that tells it to build the assemblies at the end of the install process. There is also a shortcut to a batch file in the Start menu that you can use to build the assemblies. Access to the source code is not required to use the Enterprise Library. You only need to add references to the compiled assemblies in your project and usually some basic configuration information added to your config files. Those references can be added to a C# Express project and the configuration can be added using the Enterprise Library Configuration tool. Check out the Start menu item called Enterprise Library Documentation. This links to a help file that provides all the information that you need to get started.
