.NET Framework Client Profile Released
Smaller faster client released for Windows Internet Apps.
The .NET 3.5 SP1 Beta announced last week includes the .NET Framework Client profile. This 26.5 megabyte download will simplify the deployment of .NET apps to clients that previously had to install the various generations of .NET framework code to get started. The beta includes most of the assemblies required to enable clients to run new .NET apps, and should vastly simplify the process of enabling novice users to install and run new apps.
There are also a number of assemblies involving JavaScript, messaging and Web extensions that are available in the beta, but will be removed from the final release.
Microsoft is open to including these if they get enough feedback, but they are trying to keep the number of assemblies down so they can reduce the size of the package.
The SP1 also adds a new feature for targeting the Client Profile from within project Properties. It will warn you if your code contains references to assemblies that are not included in the trimmed-down version of the profile. Unfortunately, the list of assemblies in this Beta version of VS is out of sync with the actual list of assemblies in the client download, so some programs might run even if an error is generated.
