Q:

Should I upgrade to Castle Windsor v2?

We are evaluating to upgrade Castle Windsor Container to Version 2, which was released in May this year. By this time I would expect the community to have made some experiences about the new release...
My main concerns are:

Is it worth the effort to upgrade to v.2? (any major important new functionality or bug fixes?)
Is the migration smooth or are there some pitfalls and things that are not backward compatible?
Is there a performance improvement?

Cheers, Jacob

A:

Yes it is worth the upgrade.
A lot has changed since RC3, including many bugfixes, addition of fluent registration API etc.
I don't know about any big perf improvement, but do you have any performance problems with Windsor?
There were no breaking changes as far as I know, but it's best to just pull Windsor down, upgrade and see if all your tests pass.
