Can I compile C# 6 for .NET 4? [duplicate] - c#

This question already has answers here:
Does C# 6.0 work for .NET 4.0?
(5 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
Is it possible to use Roslyn compiler and new features of C# 6.0 with old versions of .NET Runtime (for example, .NET 4.0)?
For example, I want use the expression-bodied members (int S => x + y; instead of int S { get { return x + y; } }) in .NET 4.0 application.

The new C# 6.0 features don't depend upon framework support so yes, you an app compiled with the C# 6.0 compiler will run on .NET 4.0, assuming of course you specify you are targeting .NET 4.0 in your project file in the first place.

As of now Roslyn C# compiler and tooling cannot run on .NET 4.0
You can certainly cross-compile for .NET 4.0, but to run the compiler itself you need at least .NET 4.5

LINQ on the .NET 2.0 Runtime
(8 answers)
Closed 9 years ago.
I made an application in .net framework 4.0, visual studio 2010, but due to some reason i changed the framework from 4.0 to 2.0 but now i am getting error that
The type or namespace name 'Linq' does not exist in the namespace 'System' (are you
missing an assembly reference?)
LINQ is very much used in this project, now i want to know that is there any way to use LINQ with .net 2.0.Need help.Thanks.
Linq is not supported in dotnet 2.0
You can use LinqBridge, which provides an alternative implementation of the Linq to Objects operators. (note: it works only for Linq to Objects, not for Linq to XML or Linq to XML...)

Mono compiler indication [duplicate]

Compiler #if directive to split between Mono and .NET [duplicate]
(3 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
Because Mono doesn't support some windows functions in .NET, is there any pre-compiler derivative that indicates that the compiler is a mono compiler?
Example, in Visual Studio there is a derivative #DEBUG and #TRACE is there such a derivative for mono that's something like `#MONO' that automatically is added if the compiler is mono?
Or do we have to add the derivative ourselves and change as necessary?
Mono compiler defines MonoCS, I think
So:
#if __MonoCS__
should work...

Recently I was searching for a documentation on CLR, C# version mapping right from 1.0 to 4.0, but didn't find any good resources. It would be very helpful, If anyone could provide me this information or link to any resources.
The release schedule was as follows:-
C# 1 + CLR 1
C# 2 + CLR 2
C# 3 + CLR 2
C# 4 + CLR 4

C# Version and .NET Framework Version? [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
What are the correct version numbers for C#?
(13 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
I am confused with both the C# version and .NET framework version. In other words, I want to know the relationship with C# version and .NET framework. E.g: which is C# version in .NET framework 3.0?
I am not sure what your actual question is, but if it is what are the current versions..
C#: 3.0
.NET Framework: 3.5
You might also want to take a look at this breakdown chart. It provides the Framework, language and CLR relations.
C# 1.0 - Managed Code
C# 2.0 - Generics, Nullable Types, Anonymous Delegates, Partial Classes / Methods
C# 3.0 - LINQ, Lambda Expressions, Implicit Variable Typing, Streamlined Object Initialization
// Related? somewhat perhaps
.net 2 C# 2
.net 3 C# 2
.net 3.5 C# 3
