.Net Enterprise Library 2.0 is available

Patterns and Practices home

I noticed that a new version of the Enterprise library for .Net 2.0 and is available for download here.

The Key changes are,

  • Configuration now built on System.Configuration

         Configuration Application Block no longer exists

         Easier to use blocks with or without configuration files

  • Instrumentation configurable is disabled by default

  • Much improved Logging Application Block

         Flexibility and performance

  • Simpler and more powerful Data Access Application Block

         Use with OLE-DB, Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) or any managed provider

  • Most of the Security Application Block has been removed

         Deprecated in favor of .NET Membership and Profile features
