Smart Client Software Factory – April 2008 Release is available on MSDN

The April 2008 release of the Smart Client Software Factory is now available at https://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa480482.aspx

This is a port of the last release (May 2007, if I recall correctly) to VS2008.  No new features were added.  A few bugs were fixed, and a number of work items from CodePlex were closed.

This release supports Enterprise Library 3.1.  It does not support Enterprise Library 4.0.  If you want EntLib 4.0 (once it is released) you have the source code, and should be able to get it to work, if you really need to.  I would not recommend it, as you will end up with two containers (Unity and the CAB container), which means code bloat and challenges deciding where objects should go.

    Hi, Just reading this comment from you.. "I would not recommend it, as you will end up with two containers (Unity and the CAB container), which means code bloat and challenges deciding where objects should go." Don't you think Enterprise team blocked people of are using CAB in thier application. Here is an example we have 3-4 products based on CAB and using EntLib 3.1. Now we are stuck, we can't move on to EntLib 4.0 due to Unity and the CAB container. Do you guys have any plan to move CAB to Unity base container. Thanks Sushil
