.NET Standard / Core support?

[kinetiq]

I'm having trouble finding any statements on whether you support, or plan to support, .NET Standard / Core moving forward.

I'm getting a compatibility warning in my project though, so I'm guessing Z.ExtensionMethods currently is only for Full Framework, is that right?

Hello @kinetiq ,

Yes, you are right. It currently works on the full framework.

We will for sure support eventually .NET Standard but I'm not sure yet when in 2018 since we are currently re-writing some other libraries which will take us already some month.

Best Regards,

Jonathan

After some discussion (28 seconds later),

We will try to look at it next week to at least see the effort to support .NET Standard 2.0

We could do it in two phases:

• Phase 1: Support .NET Standard (Now)
• Phase 2: Cleanup & Rewrite the library (later in 2018)

We will give you more information probably next week.

Best Regards,

Jonathan

Just a quick note that when I updated my open source libraries to Standard, it wasn't that bad. But anything with reflection is going to change a bit - mostly just namespace naming.

How is this project going? :)

Keen to see support for .NET Standard 2 :-)

Hello @kinetiq , @Ricky-G ,

My developer made the change a few weeks ago but unfortunately, I got some health issue, so a lot of free requests has been paused like this one.

I will try to review his code next weekend and make a release from it.

Best Regards,

Jonathan

Thanks - really looking forward to this!

Since over 6 months have passed, I was wondering if this is going to happen or if we should just give up on z for future versions of .net?

[JonathanMagnan]

Hello @kinetiq ,

I was going yesterday to answer that I will work on it this weekend but I guess I lost this right ;)

So I will instead tell you that the v2.1.0 has been released.

It now supports .NET Standard.

Thank a lot for the patience and reminder from time to time ;)

Let me know if everything is working as expected.

Best Regards,

Jonathan
