2.5.0.0 provider and framework 3.5

[zeko77]

I downloaded latest provider (from weekly build)
and it seesm that it is built in VS2008 and targeted for 3.5.
Since I dont have 3.5 on most of my servers, i downloaded source and
targeted it to 2.0 with no problems so far.
Is there any 3.5 specific code in provider?

There is, but only if NET_35 and ENTITY_FRAMEWORK are defined. I presume
when 2.5 is released, there'll be two versions: one for .NET 2.0 and one
for .NET 3.5.

Or maybe two separate DLLs? I'm not sure what the maintainer's plans are.

Exactly. The development is done on VS2008 compiler (using some
features from C#3.0 etc. if neccessary), but when you remove above
mentioned symbols, you can build (with C#3.0 compiler) the assembly
without any FW 3.5 stuff.

Right now, I have no strict idea. :) Because .NET 3.5 is under the
bonnet same as .NET 2.0 the only problem is with some new classes for
deriving added. But I think, when I build it on PC with FW 3.5 the
assembly will work on FW2.0 as well. The EF buils will be probably
separate.
I have to find/install some computer with only FW2.0 and test it,
because all my machines including VPCs are upgraded to FW 3.5. :D
