Code Language and .NET Framework Selection

Compilation and application building options govern how your application is compiled. 

Code Language

Select the programming language for code generated by Iron Speed Designer.

Note: You can change your application’s code language after it has been created.  However, any modifications you make to the generated source code files will not be migrated to the newly generated application; you must port any code customizations by hand after switching code languages.

.NET Framework

In some cases, the .NET Framework version you select automatically designates the compiler you must use to compile your application.

Note: Once you have generated an application using .NET Framework 3.5, you will not be able to switch to .NET Framework 2.0/3.0.  Applications are not backward compatible.
