Could not launch StackUnderflow.sln in VS 2008 #1
Description

Yeah, it was coded in 2008 - but shouldn't VS 2010 just migrate the project for you?
BTW, you can add me in GTalk - ron.gross@gmail.com - we can chat about it if you want.
Hmm, I thought about reproducing this issue right now ... but I currently have only VS2008 installed on my machine. At the time, if I remember correctly, I tried converting to VS2010 when it came out and encountered some issues:
@wongwf82 - what would you want, out of these options:
- Install VS 2008 and see if this project even is worth investing more time in, for you?
- Try to convert it to VS 2010 yourself
- I might be able to spend some time and try converting it to VS 2010 myself, though I think it would take me about a week to install VS 2010 and get the time to work on it.
?
I'm actually using VS .Net 2008 to open it. It doesn't seem to launch the project when I double clicked on StackUnderflow.sln.
Did you manage to open it? (Test the zip file that you uploaded)

Oh, actually the problem might be reverse :)
I just tried to open the sln with VS 2008, and it said the sln was created by a newer program ... I guess that I did migrate the project to VS 2010 after all.
Do yo have access to VS 2010 ?
BTW, I don't remember a zip file, but I recommend you download the latest build from Github - I'm not sure at what time I made a zip... the github source is always the latest.
I see.. so the source code is in VS .Net 2010? Any chance for it to be in VS .Net 2008?
Oh.. I click on Downloads on Github and it offers 2 option.. TAR.GZ or ZIP. So I reckon it zips it for you so other can download it. No worries.

Comment and Closed by accident.
Well, you could try to edit the version number in the SLN file, but I think that it would be counter productive. Is getting a VS 2010 a problem? You can also try a separate VS2008 solution, and maintain both - I don't think that I have any actual dependency on anything post C# 3.0, except maybe ASP.Net MVC itself - and this can be included as a 3rd party.
So - if you can't get VS 2010 - the right move I think is to create another VS 2008 flie that will co-exist with the VS 2010 one. Can you try it out?
Hi, I double clicked StackUnderflow.sln and nothing happened. Is this coded in VS .Net 2008?
