Working against different .NET runtime versions (I need System.Func!)
f#.net

I'm building a library that will be called from .NET 3.5 apps, and I need to make use of the System.Func delegate defined in 3.5. How do I get F# to reference the .NET 3.5 assemblies rather than the 2.0 assemblies?

.

Also, 400th thread, I win!

If it's 400th thread then I'll have to join (though I don't see the number anywhere ...).
Anyway, to reference classes from the .NET 3.5, you just need to add reference to additional .NET 3.5 libraries (both 3.0 and 3.5 just add assemblies to the standard 2.0, so you don't need to change the "target framework" - it is still 2.0 with additional assemblies).

The assembly that contains Func delegate is following:
C:\Program Files\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\v3.5\System.Core.dll

So, I would do the following in the code (or use appropriate command line switches to reference it):

1
2

#I @"C:\Program Files\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\v3.5\"
#r "System.Core.dll"

The thread count is listed on the forum index. [:)]

You'd think I would have just tried referencing the DLL, but I didn't even think of that. Thanks for the help.

In addition to Tomas comments you can also use the compiler switch -I and -r which are both the same at the end

fsc -I \"c:\\Program Files\\Reference Assemblies\\Microsoft\\Framewor<WBR>k\\v3.5\" -r System.Core.dll -r System.Data.dll -r System.Xml.Linq.dll -r System.Data.Linq.dll
