I brought up an older project done by someone else and found out they used infrigistics 11.1 to complete the project. On my computer, I only have version 11.2. So when I tried to run the version utility to upgrade the assemblies, it failed and said that there were retired controls and the error message popped up.
ProjectFile element: DistComplain\DistComplain.vbproj is being treated as a proj file.Analyzing DistComplain.vbproj...The project has references that need to be updated.We have determined this solution/project/website to have retired ASP.NET controls in the following file C:\Users\jakec\Desktop\DistComplain\DistComplain\Admin\IssueTypes.aspx. NOTE: There could be retired controls in other files too. The utility cannot proceed any further. Please refer to the following blog post on how retired controls are being handled. http://community.infragistics.com/blogs/taz_abdeali/archive/2011/11/17/asp-net-product-changes-in-2011-volume-2.aspxCould not load the project. Please see the Log file for more details.ProjectFile element: ..\Utils\Utils\Utils.csproj is being treated as a proj file.Analyzing Utils.csproj...Nothing for us to upgrade.
So I went to the website shown above and found out there are version free assemblies. So I downloaded those and referenced them in my project. So now I am stuck. Is there a way to use the non version assemblies in place of the 11.1 assemblies? Or a way to make the version utility work to upgrade to my 11.2?
Replacing all the controls is not an option, wayyy too many.
THe person who did create the project also cannot help. What can I do?
Dear jakec,
Thank you for contacting Infragistics!
We have received your support request concerning upgrading to 11.2 with the Version Utility, and this case has been assigned to me. Infragistics is dedicated to helping you solve this issue. Our team and I have done an initial review of your case and I am looking into what the best approach for you would be and will get back to you by sometime tomorrow with more information or questions for you.
Hi jakec,
The Version Free assemblies could be used when you have a copy of both 11.1 and 11.2. You can download 11.1 from the following location if you currently do not have a copy:
http://ko.infragistics.com/products/downloads/archived
This is needed as the 11.2 version free assemblies do not contain the retired classic controls; 11.1 was the last volume to contain those controls. If you would like to obtain a license for 11.1 please contact our sales department at sales@infragistics.com.
Please let me know if I can be of any further help.
