Does IronPython 2.0 work under Visual Studio 2005?
This is sort of a trick question and depends upon the meaning of work above. If by work you mean to run IronPython, there actually is no specific version of Visual Studio you’ll need. That is, execution of IronPython isn’t tied into Visual Studio in any form. However, each IronPython version does indeed have a requirement around .NET versions. For IronPython 2.0 this is .NET 2.0 SP1. If on the otherhand your definition of work means to build IronPython from sources, you’ll need either an installation of .NET 3.5 which includes msbuild or Visual Studio 2008. IronPython and the Dynamic Language Runtime’s solution and C# project files are all in Visual Studio 2008 format.
