.NET 5.0 support

Open CyberSinh opened this issue 4 years ago • 8 comments

Hi,

I tried to use AlphaFS in a .NET 5.0 project and I get the following warning:

Avertissement NU1701: Le package 'AlphaFS 2.2.6' a été restauré en utilisant '.NETFramework,Version=v4.6.1, .NETFramework,Version=v4.6.2, .NETFramework,Version=v4.7, .NETFramework,Version=v4.7.1, .NETFramework,Version=v4.7.2, .NETFramework,Version=v4.8' au lieu du framework cible du projet 'net5.0-windows7.0'. Ce package n'est peut-être pas totalement compatible avec votre projet.

Does the .NET 5.0 framework officially supported?

Thanks.

Regards,

Sylvain

That sounds like complete French to me. 🤣 But no, unfortunately .NET 5.0 is not (yet) supported.

OK thanks. Do you have a roadmap for .NET 5.0 support?

CyberSinh avatar Nov 15 '20 20:11 CyberSinh

No, unfortunately I don't think we have a roadmap yet. I haven't had time to investigate this personally yet, so don't quite know the scope of it. @Yomodo, do you have any input on this?

What would need to be done to make AlphaFS officially compatible with .NET 5.0? As it is, the library seems to work without any problems.

Hi! Sorry for the delay.

I cannot believe I'm saying this, but apart from the NTFS specific stuff, why would you still want to use AlphaFS on NET 5?

Guess "long path" is not an issue anymore?

I don't see any API such as Volume.GetUniqueVolumeNameForPath in .NET 5 for eg. Also, you don't have any way to enumerate file system entries with filters like ErrorFilter.

Poking this issue as I'm running into it...

Another reason for AlphaFS on .net 5 is that .net 5 doesn't seem to have any methods for converting to local to UNC paths. I have a strong need in my app (both in .net standard and .net 5) to convert both local and remote paths to UNC format

Not sure why Windows supports working with UNC paths but can't convert to them...

I used a converter to convert the project to .NET 5. It doesn't appear that any changes were needed (from the Git stuff in VS), though I don't remember if I did change anything.

I'm closing this issue as there are no further developments to be expected from AlphaFS. Is AlphaFS dead ? #529
