Running AT4 Custom Actions/Assemblies in AT5

I have developed a few custom actions in .Net (c#) and in AT4 these needed to be compiled in .net 2.0, but in AT5 it looks like you need to have them compiled in .net 4.0 - can you run a AT4 custom action in AT5? i.e. create a 2.0 folder under assemblies, copy in the dll’s and cross my fingers (a quick test implies it won’t work).

So whats the recommended way of upgrading custom actions between major versions?

Thanks, TJ

Hi TJ,

The recommendation is to compile these custom actions under .Net 4.0. If this is not possible then you can try setting Automises .Net framework to version 2.0 in the options. Note however that you will lose access to actions that require 4.0 features.
