.NET 6 Compatability

Post by Mikes360 » 03 Jul 2023, 10:23

Hello,

We are trying to migrate our .NET Framework 4.6 application to .NET 6.

We are still using Windows Forms but our code seems to have a rendering issue causing nothing to be drawn.

Can anyone confirm if it should be possible to migrate CAD .NET applications to .NET 6?

Thanks,
Mike

Hello,

The latest CAD .NET version supports .NET 6 on Windows only (more information about it at https://cadsofttools.com/company/news/c ... -released/). So, if you plan to use Windows Forms, then, yes, you could migrate CAD .NET to .NET 6.

Regards,
Catherine.

Thank you for the response.

We are currently running version 12.1.0.21127 of the CADImport.dll. Would we need to upgrade?

If we do need to upgrade will version 15 maintain compatability or is there breaking changes between versions.

Thanks,
Mike

Hi,

Well, CAD .NET 12 doesn't support .NET 6, if it is essential for you.
Also, the latest CAD .NET version includes other improvements:

Added a build for the .NET 6 framework (only for Windows)
Improved import of DWG and DXF formats:
- improved support for MTexts and Texts
- improved support for Hatches
- improved display of SHX fonts

Improved export of DWG and DXF formats
Improved export of SVG format
Improved export of PDF format
Improved G-code generation from DWG and DXF files
Added functions for Explode, Trim, Join and Snap features
Bug fixes

If you're interested in the upgrade and its cost, please, contact us at info@cadsofttools.com.

Regards,
Catherine.
