Is your .NET 4 support just in the NAnt scripts? It's probably safe to replace the VS2008 solution file with a VS2010 version.

I've taken Tasos' approach and defined a CLIENT_PROFILE compilation symbol and conditionally excluded the ASP.NET stuff if it is present and in addition NAnt won't reference System.Web. I haven't performed any extensive testing but at least I was able to build a minimal client profile command line app and write a log message to a file using the 3.5 Client Profile assembly created (which in reality is a 2.0 Client Profile assembly). For 4.0 this doesn't work, but it is not due to Client Profile but to the security related exception I already raised in a different thread. As soon as I try to load any type from any of the two assemblies targeting 4.0 a TypeLoadException is raised because of Inheritance security rules violated while overriding member: 'log4net.Util.ReadOnlyPropertiesDictionary.GetObjectData(System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo, System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext)'. Security accessibility of the overriding method must match the security accessibility of the method being overriden. log4net.Util.ReadOnlyPropertiesDictionary.GetObjectData(System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo, System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext)"} So this isn't related to ADO.NET as I suspected in the other thread. Of the three patches attached to LOG4NET-233 two contain security related attributes in the 4.0 case - but they take different approaches. I'll have to read up on the differences of the security models and the ramifications of either approach before deciding what to do. I can't promise this will happen this weekend (rather unlikely). Any advice from people with more (should I say any?) knowledge is welcome 8-) Stefan
