Switch to C# 8.0 - Githubissues

ilexp commented 5 years ago

Summary

We're currently using C# 7.3. Once C# 8.0 is stable and released, consider upgrading in order to access language features like readonly members (see #600).

Analysis

C# 7.3 is the last version that will be supported on .NET Framework.
C# 8.0 requires .NET Core 3.0 or .NET Standard 2.1 (also, see here), which isn't implemented in .NET Framework.
Upgrading to C# 8.0 can only take place after previously upgrading the project to .NET Core 3.0 and .NET Standard 2.1.
Wait until the overall environment is ready, then proceed with this issue.

Nullable references should work even on older .NET framework versions and so do alot of other features. Not everything though but that doesn't stop us from using C#8.0.

Microsoft does not officially support it though. So might still be better to wait a bit.

Is it possible by now to use Duality with C# 8.0? Would be nice tho

And generally, when can we expect Duality 4.0? is it still under development or was it (hopefully not) aborted?
