Managed DirectX running from .Net Framework 4.0 app dont hunt

Question

I work on a product that uses Managed DirectX for data visualizations. I was trying to upgrade this product to .net framework 4.0, but I think I\'m having issues with Manag

Answer 1

Just in case there is one other shop out there using Managed DirextX with .Net 4.0, if you put the following config entry in your app config, it'll allow you to do it.

<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
  <supportedRuntime version="v4.0"/>
</startup>

The problem is that the MDX mixed mode assemblies were compiled against 1.1 runtime, and the way CLR 4.0 loads mixed mode assemblies changed, so this config file entry will allow the CLR 4.0 runtime to use lagacy assembly loading.
