We are pleased to announce the CSLA .NET version 9.1.0 release. This release includes enhancements and bug fixes from version 9.0.0.

#cslanet version 9.1.0 beta is now online

github.com/MarimerLLC/c...

#dotnet #blazor

Just merged what may be the largest PR in #cslanet history - Stephan added NRT support throughout much of the codebase!

Obviously this is a breaking change, and so will be part of version 10.

It is also a big improvement to the code.

We've pushed #cslanet version 7.0.7. Normally v7 would be too old for such a thing, but it is the last version that supports #xamarin and a community member submitted a fix to an issue that was blocking them from working, so it seemed wise to do the update.

We're excited to share that #cslanet version 9.0.0 is online!

This is a big release, though with limited breaking changes. Tons of enhancements, optimizations, and bug fixes. And the most contributors of any release to date

#cslanet 9 release candidate 3 is now online.

github.com/MarimerLLC/c...

So close to a #cslanet v9 release - except it turns out that the #dotnet #aot stuff required by #dotnetmaui now has quite the cascade effect in the code, so we're working through those issues before releasing 9.0. Some of the fixes may require subtle breaking changes.

Most GitHub special files can be located in the .github directory so they don't clutter the repo root directory.

It turns out that the _license_ file is not one of them. Apparently, it needs to be in the root repo directory to work.

Versioning strategy for UI packages · MarimerLLC csla · Discussion #4349 I'd like to have a discussion about something that's becoming a bigger problem as time goes on: UI frameworks are no longer necessarily coupled to .NET releases. For example, MAUI 8 is going out of...

Given that #dotnetmaui 8 will go out of support in May 2025, months before #dotnet 8 itself, we need a strategy for dropping #cslanet satellite packages in a clean way.

I am looking for input on a good strategy and want input.
