I want to upgrade my code from .NET4.8 to .net6 and I have code in visual basic and C# language so my question is that is visual basic supported on .net6 and if it is then what is the lowest version of visual basic that is supported in .net6 .
I have been finding resource online but i am not getting appropriate answer
Language support is backward compatible. You could ask what's the highest version the compiler would support. And yes, VB.NET is supported in net6 and further.
As per https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/visual-basic/language-reference/configure-language-version:
<PropertyGroup>
<LangVersion>latest</LangVersion>
</PropertyGroup>
The value latest uses the latest minor version of the Visual Basic language. Valid values are:
Value
Meaning
default
The compiler accepts all valid language syntax from the latest major version that it can support.
9
The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 9.0 or lower.
10
The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 10.0 or lower.
11
The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 11.0 or lower.
12
The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 12.0 or lower.
14
The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 14.0 or lower.
15
The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 15.0 or lower.
15.3
The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 15.3 or lower.
15.5
The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 15.5 or lower.
16
The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 16 or lower.
16.9
The compiler accepts only syntax that is included in Visual Basic 16.9 or lower.
latest
The compiler accepts all valid language syntax that it can support.

I installed MS Build Tools 2019 (along with clang) and verified the compiler (Visual Studio 2019) but couldn't figure out how to set the compiler to use clang in Dymola. The documentation only mentions support for clang in the linux version but doesn't seem to mention anything about Windows support.
I was wondering if anyone has figured out how to set the compiler to clang through MS Build.
I'm currently working on a Visual Basic project with a team of developers, some of which will be able to move to Visual Studio 2015 as soon as it is released, and some who will be stuck on Visual Studio 2013 for several months. In testing with the RC we have found that Visual Studio will open 2013 projects without a problem, but will happily let users use new language features, such as string interpolation, that are not available for users in VS 2013. If a 2015 user checks in this code the 2013 users will get compile errors. Is there any project, solution, or Visual Studio setting that will tell the compiler to restrict features to what is available in the previous version of VB.net? Ideally the compiler should return a compile error when trying to use these features in 2015.
This features is available in C# under Project Properties > Build > Language Version, but I can't find any equivalent for VB.net, and the google searches are failing me.
I just wanted to mention that setting the .Net runtime version to 4.5 doesn't help, as these new language features are compiler level features that work perfectly fine on older frameworks.
There is no UI feature to set the Language version, but you can unload the project file and add <LangVersion>11</LangVersion> to default Visual Basic to the 2012/2013 language settings. The C# project adds this property under the Project Configuration property groups, so for consistency's sake I've done the same in the sample below.
The C# property pages do the same thing, except that C# uses a different set of version numbers.
A full set of all the language versions can be found here.
2002 (VB 7.0)
2003 (VB 7.1)
2005 (VB 8.0)
2008 (VB 9.0)
2010 (VB 10.0)
2012 (VB 11.0)
2015 (VB 14)
Just tested and this works for me, but I did have to change the casing to:
This results in:
And a nice build failure:

Change C++/CLI project to another framework than 4.0 with vs2010
I wrote a hello world app in C++/CLI and i compiled (with safe clr) and ran it under windows. No problem. I ran it under linux and i got this error
WARNING: The runtime version supported by this application is unavailable.
Using default runtime: v1.1.4322
How do I compile C++/CLI so it will work for either .NET run time 2/3.5 or .NET 4?
-edit- I found this answer why says mono 2.6 falls back (or reports?) version 1 when it comes across .NET 4 runtimes. Ok, so now i know this is a .NET 4 runtime but how do i compile it as .NET 2 or 3.5? I rather deal with .NET 4 than 1 so good :). But my server isnt setup for that ATM (monos VM image is tho which i am testing now with success)
The VC++ 2010 compiler only generates .NET 4.0 assemblies.
The VC++ 2008 compiler only generates .NET 2.0-3.5 assemblies.
If you have VC++ 2008 installed, you can instruct Visual Studio 2010 to use the VC++ 2008 compiler which will create a .NET 2.0-3.5 assembly. Simply change the "Platform Toolset" setting under project properties to "v90".
I want to be able to develop code using Visual Studio 2010. I just got VS2010 and I'm not able to get the languages I want on it. The main reason that I'm asking this is that I'm trying to migrate to ONE IDE that does it all for me. Thus far eclipse has been doing a good job, but I've been informed that VS2010 is better and I'm trying to get into the groove of that standard
So my question is two-fold.
I am not able to find a complete list of languages supported by VS2010. What are these languages?
How can I get VS2010 support for:
Python/IronPython
C/C++/C#/XNA
Java
My Googling has given me no promising/definitive results.
I'd really appreciate any help.
From Wikipedia (search Visual Studio 2010):
"Visual Studio supports languages by means of language services, which allow the code editor and debugger to support (to varying degrees) nearly any programming language, provided a language-specific service exists. Built-in languages include C/C++ (via Visual C++), VB.NET (via Visual Basic .NET), C# (via Visual C#), and F# (as of Visual Studio 2010[3]). Support for other languages such as M, Python, and Ruby among others is available via language services installed separately. It also supports XML/XSLT, HTML/XHTML, JavaScript and CSS. Language-specific versions of Visual Studio also exist which provide more limited language services to the user. These individual packages are called Microsoft Visual Basic, Visual J#, Visual C#, and Visual C++."
I have upgraded a visual basic 2005 project to visual basic 2010 (.net framework 4.0). I want to list all obsolete functions used in this project in order to change it with newer ones.
How can I treat obsolete functions warnings as errors in visual basic 2010 ms-build?
User the Warnings As Errors switch of the vbc (Visual Basic compiler). You can use it via the Vbc task in MSBuild or set it globally via the TreatWarningsAsErrors parameter in your script.
