Upgrade to .NET 8 (LTS) #257

Closed danzuep closed 2 months ago

danzuep commented 8 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The service, WPF and Test projects are all using .NET Framework.

Describe the solution you'd like You've already implemented .NET standard2.0 for the libraries, so no point in staying in the Dark Ages.

Describe alternatives you've considered Downloading Framework again.

Additional context It's easy to upgrade with the Microsoft .NET Upgrade Assistant extension in Visual Studio.

.NET 8 is a long term support (LTS) release, so upgrading to .Net8 would be better

danzuep commented 6 months ago

.NET 8 was still in pre-release when I opened this ticket, but yes you're right, it should be the new normal.

You can test the dev .NET 8 version in this branch: https://github.com/ChangemakerStudios/Papercut-SMTP/tree/feature/net8

What's holding up the release is, as always, the installation system.
