End-Of-Life Date for Classic ASP?
in [ASP]
|
From: DylanSmith on 10 Jun 2008 14:03 Is there an end-of-support date for Classic ASP? For example, I know that VB6 standard support ended sometime around March 2005, and extended support was available until around March 2008. Is there a similar end-of-support date(s) for Classic ASP?

I believe it is already past-support. it certainly is not having new features developed for is. That doesn't mean you shouldn't use it ... -- Microsoft MVP -- ASP/ASP.NET Please reply to the newsgroup. The email account listed in my From header is my spam trap, so I don't check it very often.

I guess it all comes down to the definition of "end-of-support". -- Microsoft MVP -- ASP/ASP.NET Please reply to the newsgroup.

I guess it all comes down to the definition of "end-of-support". > That thought ocurred to me as I posted, but I interpreted the question in the way that most similar questions are phrased, as in "If I spend a load of time building a classic ASP app, how long can I rely on there being a supported platform to run it on?" or "Will I be forced to migrate my classic ASP apps anytime soon?"
