    Hi, there's currently a restriction on running only .net 3.5 code on Azure hpc workers. When will this be lifted in favour of .Net 4?

    .Net 4 applicatoin should run on worker role. There is nothing to stop you from running a .net 4 applicatoin as a hpc task. If you are running a HPC SOA service, it's also possible to redirect the framework to 4.0.

    Hello Yidingz, Don

    When i tried using a SOA service in .net 4.0, I got the below error.

    Could not load file or assembly 'file:///C:\Resources\directory\dd45f9b60b2740b7861cb3bbee835bf4.ComputeNode.Microsoft.Hpc.Azure.LocalStorage.Application\HelloWorld\2012-10-19T103259.0000000Z\HelloWorldAzure.dll' or one of its dependencies. This assembly is built by a runtime newer than the currently loaded runtime and cannot be loaded.

    Is .NET 4.0 currently supported?

    Thanks!

    Yes, you can use .net 4.0. Just update HpcServicehost.exe.config and force loading .net 4.0.
