I've not been able to install any of the latest hot fixes to my Infragistics development computer. The ASP.NET hot fix says I either don't have them installed or the version is incorrect. My current installations are as follow:
Also is there a simple list of upgrade/hot fix history available for the above Vol/CLR combination anywhere on the Infragistics site? Very confusing..
Cheers,
Our blogs related to hot fixes may be some help for providing general information about our hot fixes. We now also have a sub-forum for hot fixes under each platform as well (Windows Forms, ASP.NET, WPF, TestAdvantage, and JSF).
You can download hot fixes for products you have registered through the My Keys and Downloads page of our website.
Just my two cents here...it doesn't seem like any progress was made on allowing client to find hot fixes. I've been looking for over 30 minutes and haven't found a shred of documentation on where to find these hot fixes everyone talks about. How about a link in our download section called "HOT FIXES"! Seems like a no-brainer.
I like the tools and, once you unravel how they work, they do aid in development, but finding information on this site is my #1 bane at work...and it shouldn't be.
Don,
Thanks for the feedback. We're always looking for ways to make our customers' lives a bit easier, and you've identified one area ("which hot fix do I need to install?") that warrants some more thought on our end.
Thanks for the fast reply Vince,
After spending a fair amount of time sorting the various packages, volumes, CLR version and associated hot fixes everything is working. Now that I've decrypted how Infragistics does their version control all is well. My only comment is that I feel it should have been simpler and a bit clearer. Also the navigation to the information I required seemed awkward and round-about to my way of thinking.
So as not to leave this with only a constructive criticism I would also like to say the IG products are very powerfull tools to assist developers in building high end applications. Additionally these forums have been very helpfull in learning/configuring this new tool set.

The name of the hot fix you want will match the name of the product you installed. Whether you installed the "ASP.NET", "Windows Forms", or ".NET" product makes a difference. Check your "Add/Remove Programs" dialog from your Windows Control Panel if you're not absolutely certain what you have installed.
For instance, if you installed "NetAdvantage for .NET 2008 Vol. 1 CLR 2.0", then you need the hot fix for "NetAdvantage for .NET 2008 Vol. 1 CLR 2.0". The hot fix for "NetAdvantage for ASP.NET 2008 Vol. 1 CLR 2.0" will not work.
I didn't think that "NetAdvantage for .NET 2008 Vol. 1 CLR 3.5" would list itself like this in your Add/Remove Programs dialog. Since we only provide CLR 3.5 assemblies for our ASP.NET tools, I'd expect this to instead be listed as :NetAdvantage for ASP.NET 2008 Vol. 1 CLR 3.5".
You can find lists of what was fixed in all hot fixes for a particular version of the toolset from our Bug Search page. Rather than providing a direct link and instructions on how to create a query through this interface, it's easier to refer to some links to some pre-built searches. You can find these links from our Hot Fix blogs, which we update whenever a hot fix is released. For the most recent hot fix as of the time of this forum post, you can go to this blog post to find links to the search results.
