More follow up from Vancouver - Enterprise Patterns
A couple of questions revolved around the enterprise library and implications of .Net 2.0 on the patterns & practices in the library. For example what's the impact of the security application block now that .Net 2.0 has similar functionality? What about caching in our app?
Much of the functionality in the previous release of the security application block have been removed in favor of the new functionality provided in .Net 2.0. Specifically factories ,interface and membership providers, roles and profile have been removed in favor of the new functionality provided by System.Web.Security.Membership and System.Web.Profile.
There is also a new application block for caching. For more information on the new November CTP go here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/?url=/library/en-us/dnpag2/html/EntLib2.asp
