Updating Lightswitch Apps to Target Framework 4.6

Question

When Framework 4.6 launches will we be able to upgrade or migrate our projects to target dotNET framework 4.6 or will we need to rebuild our solutions?

Hi reigh,
Thanks for your feedback in Lightswitch forum.
Generally I follow this way to enable .NET Framework 4.5 on LightSwitch Server Projects
1.Close Visual Studio if you have your LightSwitch solution open
2.Navigate to your solution’s \Server folder
3.Edit the Server.vbproj (or csproj) file in a text editor like Notepad
4.Make the following change to the <TargetFrameworkVersion>: <TargetFrameworkVersion>v4.5</TargetFrameworkVersion>
5.Save the file & reopen Visual Studio
6.Compile & verify no errors
I didn't test this in .net framework 4.6 before, I think you can try it on your side.
Hope it helps.
Best regards,
Angie
