We are planning to use iTextSharp in our .NET application. Does iTextSharp support all framework versions of .NET? specifically .NET Framework v4.5.1
Are there any scenarios where certain features of iTextSharp work only in a particular version of .NET?
Install-Package iTextSharp -Version 5.5.13.3

Hey I tried to install the latest .NET Framework 6.0.1 from the official Microsoft Website and it shows as installed inside the Visual Studio Installer but I am somehow not able to select it. Neither can I upgrade existing Applications to 6.0 nor create Applications with .NET Framework 6.0.
So i tried installing .NET Framework 5.0 instead but it has the excatly same issues.
The highest Version that I can choose is .NET Framework 4.8.
In case it is important I am on Windows 10 - 21H1 - 19044.1415.

Last version of .NET Framework is 4.8. Last version of .NET is .NET 6. They are not the same thing, .NET is a successor of .NET Core.
And if not, will it be? If so, when?
I haven't been able to find any clear official information on this, and the limited information I was able to find on Stack Overflow is a year or two old.
I was able to find official information saying EF 6.3 will be able to be used in a .NET Core project, but I couldn't find a release date for it, nor am I sure what the implications for use in a .NET Standard project are.
EF 6 supports .NET Standard 2.1, which is currently supported by .NET Core 3.0 or later - no .NET Framework version. EF 6 also supports .NET 4.0 and 4.5 or later.

Some clarification, since EntityFramework 6.3.0 .NET Standard 2.1 has been supported. However there is no .NET Framework version that supports .NET Standard 2.1. Comment from Microsoft:
NET Framework won't support .NET Standard 2.1 or later versions. For
more details, see the announcement of .NET Standard 2.1.
This means that a majority of all applications using EntityFramework 6.X won't be able to use the .NET Standard 2.1 project anyway.

Since some of our applications are written in .Net framework 2.0 & 4.5, We've plan to migrate our applications to .Net framework 4.8 and we have used MS enterprise library v3.0 & v5.0 and would like to uplift to enterprise library v6.0 Before going to migrate, need to know will the latest .Net framework 4.8 support enterprise library v6.0.
There is a port of Enterprise Library 6.0 that is supports .Net Core and .Net Standard 2.0.
I have not used that yet, so I cannot tell anything about its quality but based on the Nuget stats it seems tell that people are using these packages.
Also the original Microsoft Enterprise Library source code was published on GitHub so you could recompile the whole project using updated references, not sure how much effort would that cost.
I wanted to ask whether the ILNumerics library for the .Net Framework 3.5 is available.
I can with my project where I would like to use the library has not upgrade on that .Net Framework 4 or 4.5.
ILNumerics is designed for .NET framework version 4.0. On mono at least version 2.10 is recommended (http://ilnumerics.net/specifications.html)
May I ask why you don't want to upgrade the .NET framework?
I am having a Web Application with build target as .Net Framework 4.0.
I want to interact with the Sharepoint Object Model API's but it gives a framework 4.0 runtime does not supports Sharepoint.dll error.
Is their any tweak such that I can use Sharepoint 2010 with .Net Framework4.0.
Note: I cannnot change the build target of the web app to any other framework as I am using some exclusive features of .net 4.0 in my application.
Sorry you probably will have no luck:
There appears to be some confusion
around whether or not ASP.NET 4 is
supported for both MOSS and SharePoint
2010 - in short, the answer is that it
is not currently supported in either
product.
Whilst it is possible to use ASP.NET
3.5 in MOSS by making some modifications to the SharePoint site
web.config (instructions for doing
that in MOSS here; SP2010 uses 3.5 by
default), this is unfortunately not
the case with version 4.
The reason? ASP.NET 4 uses a new
version of the Common Language Runtime
(CLR). Whilst .NET 2.0, 3.0 and 3.5
all used version 2.0 of the CLR, .NET
4 uses version 4. I'm not entirely
sure what happened to version 3. There
is a decent post on stack overflow
with further details.
from SharePoint 2010 and .NET 4: confused?
Maybe .NET 4.0 Support will be added in a future update (SP1?) who knows...
Unfortunately, .Net 2.0 to 3.5 use a different application pool type from .Net 4.0; Mixing in the same app pool is not going to work.
What features of .Net 4.0 are you using, and perhaps the community can help you with a 3.5 solution?
