ASP.net Framework (1.1, 2.0, 3.5) version


I started my development with framework version 1.1 which was released in the year 2003. In .net framework 1.1 which was unusual and very tedious to any developer like me, but even we should say thanks to version 1.1 which taught us a lot. If we see there was nothing much as compare to our newer version. Obvious time change everything changes but the time the things has its own value, we must accept this.

In the year of 2005 we got new version of Visual Studio 2005 with enhance features with .Net framework 2.0.  Which has given a most of things which we were looking for, in framework 2.0 the most likely and awaited feature was AJAX and more controls on Data Display like Gridview, Datalist and DetailsView with enhanced features. In this version we also got the SQLDataSource which is very most useful to bind our control with new more features which was missing in version 1.1.

Microsoft released the new version of Visual Studio 2008 with framework 3.5. As per universe law necessity is the mother of invention, our requirements will never and ever fulfill as much we achieve we need more and more. We got so many new features as compare to previous version of .Net framework but even we need more features like. Paging in DataList control which was not in previous version we got new control ListViewControl with datapager control.

More features with our control using silver light. More control on our database connection and control binding using the C# concept by using LINQ (Language Integrated Query). Linq gave us the more compatibility to bind database with our GUI part without using any SQL ADO.net concepts. In the framework 3.5 we have got much more extended features in AJAX too.

The most important features of our .net framework 3.5 is multi targeting framework means it can target any of the below compatible framework. You can choose from a drop-down list which framework you want to deploy your application (2.0, 3.0, or 3.5) frameworks. Visual Studio 2008 also includes an improved Designer experience, JavaScript debugging and IntelliSense features, and the ability to view and even step into the core .NET Framework code during debugging.
