How do I tell which version of atlas Im running?

Hi, Im running an old version of Atlas, and I need to upgrade it to I guess the latest ajax.net right?

There are instructions on hompage for upgrading from "ctp" to "rc" or from "beta 2" to "rc". How do I tell what version I have and what version do I want to upgrade to?

Also, with this upgrade, with that also upgrade my atlas control toolkit?

Thanks, sorry so noobish, I just want to make sure i upgrade this right the first time, thanks.

The web.config file should be upgraded automatically when installing the new version. The old controls on toolkit need to be remove manually and the new controls need to be added manually. Hope that helps.


and will my old controls still work?

If I completely backup my existing project before upgrade, and this upgrade breaks my projects, can I just reinstall the old version again to restore?

I never had any problem with its upgrade so I wouldn't know if you can downgrade it or not. Your old controls need to be removed. They will not work due to the changes in web.config file.

How do I "replace" the ACT controls in my application?

Hi,

I have an application I wrote with an older version of the Atlas Control Toolkit. I just downloaded the latest version, and installed it. I'm wondering if there is anything else I need to do to update the controls in my application to use the more recent versions. Thanks.

Nope. Just make sure the DLLs are replaced and everything should be fine.

Thank you.

There were a few breaking changes in the framework though:
