Support for .NET 8 #28

Closed paulirwin closed 10 months ago

paulirwin commented 1 year ago

.NET 8 LTS is now generally available, and the tool requires .NET 7 to be installed in a CI environment currently. Updating the project to support .NET 8 will help set it up for the next three years of LTS support.

Thanks for raising this Paul. I'd like to get your PR merged but it doesn't look like AppVeyor has a Visual Studio image that includes the .NET 8 SDK yet. I don't expect it will be too long before they release an image with .NET 8 included.

@TAGC Thanks! What are your thoughts on removing .NET Core 2.1, .NET Core 3.1, and .NET 5 support now that they are out of support by Microsoft? Building locally gives lots of warnings about security vulnerabilities as a result of still targeting them.

@paulirwin I think that's definitely a good shout. I'll probably release one version with just the .NET 8 upgrade in place and then another one that removes support for those three unsupported versions.

Hi @paulirwin, I've released a prerelease package (3.0.0-alpha0004) that incorporates the changes from #31. I've tested it locally and it seems to work okay. I've changed my mind and think I might incorporate .NET 8 support (when it's ready) as part of the same upcoming stable release (3.0.0), rather than split them across two releases.

@TAGC Sounds good, I just updated my .NET 8 PR with merging in the latest changes from develop.
