Hi,
If I've Net Advantage WinClient 2009 and I've created a toolbox for it in Visual Studio 2008 and I've also a project that uses some of its assemblies, after installing a service release should I re-create the toolbox, will it automatically use the new files with the latest version? Also will my project use the new assemblies after recompiling it, or I should remove the assembly references and add them again? The questions are not Infragistics specific, but I've just thought I've discovered a bug in WinDateTimeEditor that was supposed to be fixed in a hot fix, only to find out that the project was loading the old assemblies (from GAC), so I've manually removed my references and added the new ones. For larger projects the ProjectUpgrade Utility can be used, but my questions is is it always necessary?
Thanks
You should not have to recreate the toolbar after installing a hotfix. It appears the hotfix removes the previous hotfix versions and so the only thing left to point to is the new build. But just to be paranoid go in and check your project reference and make sure that the build numbers match the hotfix build you just installed. Also hover over your controls in your toolbox and check the version number displayed in the tooltip. This is the safe and sane way of making sure you are all set.
If you ever find yourself in a situation where a hotfix cause a problem (this is me raising my hand). Then I found out you can't just go and try and run the previous hotfix install to go back. Let's just say that didn't work for me. To go back to a preivous hotfix I had to uninstall the whole kaboodle, reinstall and then apply the hotfix that last worked. It only took me 3 hours this week to find this out. There is a bug in the 2039 hotfix when you have a ultracombo that is set to extend last column.
