Installing Agilent I/O Libraries Suite 2
Agilent Connectivity Guide 45
NOTE
Agilent IO Libraries version 15.5 installs version 2.0.0 of the IVI
Shared Components (see http://www.ivifoundation.org/) and .NET
version 2.0 (with a Service Pack level that depends on your operating
system). If you are developing .NET programs, the development
environment that you are using must support .NET 2.0. For example, if
you are using Visual Studio to develop C# or VB.NET applications, you
must use Visual Studio 2005 or higher. (MS Visual Studio 2003 does
not recognize .NET Framework 2.0, and as a result, Visual Studio 2003
may not be used to develop .NET solutions with IO Libraries Suite
15.5.)
CAUTION
Once you have installed version 2.x of the IVI Shared
Components (for example, by installing Agilent IO Libraries Suite
15.5), you will not be able to build IVI drivers and applications
developed with earlier versions. You will need to upgrade those
drivers/applications to the new IVI Shared Components (and to
build on Visual Studio 2005 or higher, or you will need to build
those drivers/applications on a different machine that does not
have version 2.x of the IVI Shared Components.
