Will 9.1 app work on 9.4 server?

Our ASP.NET app is built with dotConnect 9.1.111. Will it continue to run properly if the server is updated to 9.4?

You should update references to the Devart.* assemblies in your application. You can do that manually (via *.config, *.csproj, etc) or automatically (via Visual Studio > Tools > Oracle > Upgrade Wizard).

We do intend to update our app, but I'm trying to find out what will happen if the (shared) server gets updated before we can release our changes?

You will get the exception "System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Devart.Data.Oracle, Version=YOUR_PREVIOUS_VERSION, [...]".

As a workaround, refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet ... y-versions:
* "Redirecting assembly versions by using publisher policy" -> the Devart publisher policy files are created in GAC by our installation
* "Redirecting assembly versions at the app level" -> you should implement this change manually
