Silverlight 2 GDR1 Now Available...

Not a huge release this one, but we've just shipped an update for Silverlight 2 that fixes a number of minor bugs that have been reported over the last couple of months.

Get it while it's hot, here:

Note that the developer tools page may have an old date/timestamp on it still, but the binary is the new updated version. You have the GDR1 if your Silverlight version is 2.0.40115.0 (the original Silverlight 2 version was 2.0.31005.0).

Here is a list of the main changes in the GDR (build 2.0.40115.0):

  • Fixes problems that were caused by Silverlight and McAfee scanning tools interactions
  • UI automation stability fixes, including:
    • graceful failures when attempting to use features that require .NET Framework 3.0 or 3.5 on machines that do not have either framework installed
    • improved Tablet support
  • Fixes an issue that arises when Mac users customize their environment by removing Arial and Verdana fonts
  • Fixes a known issue with Isolated Storage IncreaseQuotaTo method (see this post for more information)

It's also worth highlighting Tim Heuer's blog entry on the topic, which adds some good information about how to force users visiting your site to upgrade to the latest build if you're relying on one of the above fixes for your application.

    Hi Tim, is there a place to download the developper runtime version (the installer says my dev-tools are out of date and cancel installation)

    When/How should we use this version? Should I be re-deploying my existing apps? Do I need to update the version number in my .aspx pages? Put another way, what is the impact of this release on my existing applications.

    DEVELOPERS:  I've seen a few comments here (and elsewhere) about where to get the developer bits.  I posted the links and instructions here: http://timheuer.com/blog/archive/2009/02/19/silverlight-2-gets-minor-update-gdr1.aspx with direct links to the developer runtimes for Windows and Mac. Additionally the developer links are on http://silverlight.net and http://microsoft.com/silverlight/resources/tools.aspx.  I'm going to be changing where they are listed on sl.net as right now they are under the Additional Resources.

    What!? Silverlight has client .NET dependencies for some features?  I though that's what downloading the runtime was for.

    I think even this release will not install with McAfee running, seem to have the same access to reg key HKLMS..MozillaPlugins that we have with .Net Framework 3.5 SP1 and the HKLMS..Mozilla key. Site is using McAfee Virusscan Enterprise versions 8.n The advice to stop the McAfee services during install is OK for one machine but not for the thousands on site. Any advice appreciated.
