The project was targeting 4.6.2, which was the current version when
work first began. This update should not cause any change in behavior.
The only real value in doing this is that it means people working on
the project won't have to install the older SDK components.
This may require performing a manual "clobber" in existing source trees:
close Visual Studio, then in each of the seven projects, manually
remove the "bin" and "obj" directories. Using the VS "clean" feature
doesn't seem to clear out all of the dependencies, and you get weird
build complaints about missing System classes.
I'm not anticipating any compatibility issues with this switch.
Framework 4.8 shipped in April 2019, and the final version of .NET
Framework was released August 2022, so anybody who has Framework
installed should have a compatible version.
This change does not move the libraries from .NET Standard 2.0 to 2.1,
because 2.0 was the last version supported by Framework.
(At some point it might be useful to upgrade to the current .NET, but
that is a more significant change.)
Started implementing the fancy formatter. It currently doesn't do
anything fancy, just word-wrapping.
Moved the static DebugShowRuler field into Formatter, so that the
cached data is discarded when the setting changes.
Also, updated SourceNotes with instructions for publishing a release.
Minor change to solution. Removed CodeLab project stub, which was
still targeting .NET Framework 4.6.1.
The other projects with WPF code target 4.6.2, and I haven't updated
them to 4.8 out of a fear that it might make 6502bench harder to
install on older systems. The down side is that it requires an
extra "dev pack" download to build the source code. 4.8 is the end
of the line for .NET Framework, so at some point we should make that
the official target.
I installed VS 2019 CE, opened the project, and fiddled around a bit.
Everything seems to work, so I'm making the upgrade official. I
didn't see any problems when I switched back to 2017.
