Hi, Is “windowsbase.dll” part of any of the version of .net framework? I have googled it lot but unable to find proper answer, can anyone please tell me about that.
Thanks, Mushq
It's .NET 3.0 and above. Why would you need to reference this .DLL anyway??

Yeah, and it's included by default when you create a new app/control/whatever. It's kind of like settings a reference to
System.dll. This makes me wonder why he's looking for it, or if he understands what it is.A guide to posting questions on CodeProject[^]

2006, 2007, 2008I use it in my MoXAML Power Toys add-in (in the DLL portion) because I needed access to certain WPF features in the DLL, so I had to manually add the reference to it there. The only time I could see you having to set it would be in a situation similar to this.
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

It looks like .NET 3.0+ as far as I can tell.

2006, 2007, 2008Actually I am in setup team and we ship "windowsbase.dll" along with our product setup when we used to compile our project in VS 2005 using .net framework 2.0 but after shifting our product to VS 2008, framework 3.5 I got the task to find out whether that DLL is a part of .net framework 3.5, so that we should not ship that, that’s why I asked that question over here. Thanks for the answer.

Ahh! I little more explanation of what you were doing probably would have helped. Like someone else said, it's one of the base .DLL's for WPF support in .NET, so it was a little strange that you'd be asking about just that one.

2006, 2007, 2008He might have just have been clueless about its purpose if he had never saw it in a project before.
