Provide .NET core version of HeuristicLab framework libraries #2924

Open HeuristicLab-Trac-Bot opened 6 years ago

HeuristicLab-Trac-Bot commented 6 years ago

Issue migrated from trac ticket # 2924

milestone: HeuristicLab 4.x Backlog | component: General | priority: medium

2018-06-17 07:28:07: @gkronber created the issue

HeuristicLab is primarily developed as a Windows desktop application. We provide a build configuration for Mono which allows building and running HL on Linux. With a trick it is even possible to use a limited version of the GUI on Linux.

Currently, .NET core is the recommended way to implement cross-plattform .NET applications. .NET core does not support the Windows.Forms API. However, large parts of the HeuristicLab framework do not depend on the GUI parts and can therefore be potentially migrated to .NET core.

r15961: created branch for ticket

Necessary pre-conditions:

  • Split PluginInfrastructure in two plugins to remove dependency on Windows.Forms (see #2522)
  • Remove Image property in Item to remove dependency on System.Drawing (some efforts are underway to support System.Drawing on .NET core, https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/issues/20325)

If I read the issue correctly you should use one of the compatibility packages on nuget if you want System.Drawing support, for instance System.Drawing.Common + System.Drawing.Primitives. There are more, but they don't look so good to me (CoreCompat.System.Drawing and CoreCompat.System.Drawing.v2).

2019-06-17 10:41:08: dpiringe commented

r17013:

  • some changes in CLIApplication.cs to reduce unnecessary allocation of string objects
  • renamed AppTest to ConsoleOptimizer and fixed race condition
  • replaced enum RunnerJob with class RunnerMessage for more control of saved data
  • changed usage of BinaryFormatter with HEAL.Attic, following types are now Storable:
    • ConsoleOptimizer
    • InspectApplication
    • ApplicationBase
    • ApplicationRunner
    • AssemblyInfo
    • Runner
    • UniPath
    • RunnerMessage
  • switched QuietMode from ApplicationRunner to IRunner
  • DockerRunnerHost can now automatically build docker images for linux and windows containers (also identifies which container type is active) -> removes the condition to have the image preinstalled
    • to achieve this, there are two new folders DockerLinuxBuild and DockerWindowsBuild included in build output, which include Dockerfiles to build images for linux and windows container
  • added NuGet package System.CodeDom to project HeuristicLab.Scripting-3.3
  • added method Send(RunnerMessage) to IRunnerHost and transferred methods Pause and Resume to IRunner
  • added internal reference of RunnerHost in Runner
  • added abstract method SendMessage(RunnerMessage) in RunnerHost which gets called from method Send(RunnerMessage)
  • because of a Google.Protobuf "bug", RunnerMessages cannot get serialized/deserialized directly on stream -> workaround with a byte array, which gets written and read
    • additionally, the length of the array gets sent first (length as integer -> 4 bytes)
    • static method in RunnerMessage to read a message from a stream
    • the method SendMessage(RunnerMessage) in RunnerHost implements this functionality
