About upgrading Microsoft .NET Framework for Security Center SDK

Standalone applications and Workspace SDK modules

Developing a new SDK application, or recompiling an existing application with updated references to Security Center 5.10 SDK requires the following:

• Visual Studio 2012 or higher
• Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 Developer pack
• Projects that reference the SDK assemblies need to target .NET Framework 4.8 or higher

Standalone applications only

If your existing integrations use a .NET version that is earlier than 4.8, you must do one of the following:

• Compile your integration with the Security Center 5.9 SDK and deploy again with your updated integration.
  Important: The updated integration will not be compatible with an earlier version of the Security Center SDK.
• Adapt your current application to Security Center 5.9 SDK without recompiling.
  • Deploy the application with an exe.config file that includes a supported runtime element and a binding redirection.
    Attention:

       </dependentAssembly>   
    
      </assemblyBinding> 
    
     </runtime>
    
    </configuration> 

After you are done, you must copy all files from the SDK installation folder to the application folder.

Workspace SDK

Modules built on Workspace SDK are loaded from the Config Tool or Security Desk application, which already have the required settings in their associated config files.
