I want to use just the DictionaryAdapter from Castle Core 2.5.2 in an old app that already uses Castle Core 1.2. Is there a way to keep apart the common parts of these libraries, except compiling just DictionaryAdapter from source?
I'd try first upgrading Castle.Core to 2.5.2, but your problem is that this will drag other dependencies. You can try compiling DictionaryAdapter from source, it's fairly independent from the rest of Castle.Core so it shouldn't be much trouble.
