    Default VS 2010 - SQL Express 2008 compatible?

    Visual Studio 2010 is being released in a few days... wondering if I can use the 2010 version with SQL Express 2008 in a development environment for working on skins and XML Packages, etc.etc... to run the site locally as a dev environment on my Windows 2007 machine.

    I do not have the source code.

    Thanks!

    AspDotNetStorefront fully supports SQL2008, we obviously haven't tried VS2010 yet, but if you're just using it to modify the code-behind pages, XMLPackage, etc and not recompile assemblies. I don't see any problem with it.

    So, it's been out a day or so now, anyone have any success/failure reports on using VS2010 when developing our AspDotNetStorefront sites?

    Just for kicks I installed VS2010 Ultimate and pointed it at a vanilla ML/64 9.01.2 installation, because if I'm going to play in the new version of Visual Studio i'd like it to be on ASPDNSF

    Plenty of errors happen during the compile process, so as it was advised before...DO NOT use VS2010 to compile your current ASPDNSF files....unless you make a backup and want to play around like i did

    I also switched IIS over to Framework 4 and tried to run the website and received errors.

    None of the above is surprising since VS2010 and Framework 4 are only a couple days old, but I figured I'd check it out for fun and to let those without access to VS2010 yet, know how it works with ASPDNSF.

    I am currently running VS 2010 Ultimate and SQL Server 2008 on .Net 4.0. Upgrading to .Net 4.0 ran into some issues but took less than a day to fix. I forget if it was our custom code or storefront code that didn't like the change. Either way it didn't take much to resolve.
    SQL 2008, Visual Studio 2010
    Source: C#
    Version: AspDotNetStorefront ML 8.0.1.1/8.0.1.1
    Framework: .Net 4.0 (Running)
