I have a Visual Studio 2010 project which I am converting to Visual Studio 2015.

I have two questions:

  1. The project is currently using AjaxControlToolKit 4.1.60501.0. Should I upgrade it to latest version AjaxControlToolkit 17.1.1? Would there be any coding changes?
  2. I created a sample project and installed AjaxControlToolkit 17.1.1 from Nuget package. I see it in references and also all the Ajax controls in toolbox. However, I do not see ToolKitScriptManager. I also tried to install using exe from DevExpress etc. but still don't find ToolKitScriptManager.

Please guide how to get it.

It really depends on your needs and your project structure.

We have upgrade guide for old versions: https://github.com/DevExpress/AjaxControlToolkit/wiki/Upgrading-from-v7.x-and-below

You can get to know from there, that ToolkitScriptManager is removed, so you need to replace it with standard ASP.NET ScriptManager.

If you use AjaxFileUpload in your project, it's strongly advised to upgrade it to the latest version, because v17.1.1 contains major security fixes.

As a general rule, we advise you to use the latest version of the toolkit, because we can not deliver bug fixes and improvements to the old versions.
