Cannot compile MicroFour StrataFrame.sln

Sam Tenney — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 08:38:33 GMT

I downloaded the StrataFrame Source Code for version 1.7.3.1 and ran the exe file to extract the needed files. I changed the first line of the *.sln files to "Format Version 10.00" because I use Visual Studio 2008. In Visual Studio I opened the MicroFour StrataFrame.sln project and the Error List shows 306 errors. I am a beginner so I must have done something wrong, but I do not know how to solve this problem so I can compile the solution in debug mode so I can step through StrataFrame code.

Hi Sam.

Follow these steps and you should be fine:

Open the solution file in your favorite text editor (ex: notepad).
Find the Following:
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 11.00.
# Visual Studio 2010.
Replace with:
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 10.00.
# Visual Studio 2008.

Then for the Projects (.csproj/vbproj):

Open project file in your favorite text editor (ex: notepad).
Find the Following:
<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">.
Replace with:
<Project ToolsVersion="3.5" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">.

You will only notice that for the project, the VB.NET ones will show these lines above in a different order, but just change the "4.0" into "3.5"

You should do this for all the projects, which are in their respective folders:

MicroFour StrataFrame Base
MicroFour StrataFrame Business
MicroFour StrataFrame DBEngine
MicroFour StrataFrame Infragisitics Wrapper
MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI
MicroFour StrataFrame Security
MicroFour StrataFrame UI
MicroFour StrataFrame UI Expanded

Then Build the solution and you should be fine. ;)
