![]() net6.0-android net6.0-android was computed. net5.0-windows net5.0-windows was computed. As of writing this post you can add MAUI.Versions Compatible and additional computed target framework versions. MAUI.Essentials is not a NuGet package you pull in though. However, not everyone are making Apps using MAUI, so you don’t really want to pull in everything from MAUI just to have access to the MAUI.Essentials API. If you are using Xamarin.Essentials, you may have heard that this is now moved over to MAUI.Essentials. However, it appears this is not necessary to use anymore. It was just necessary with the older target frameworks to have a bunch of extra setup, which excellent community members such as Claire Novotny helped making for library authors to have a much nicer experience. If you are reading this and don’t know what it is, then you are not missing out on anything. ![]() Your milage may vary, but it has helped me with a bunch of issues not to use it anymore. However, after migrating projects to net6.0 I started having weird build issues. In MvvmCross I historically used the excellent project to help with multi-targeting scenarios. Multi-target Library: MvvmCross Messenger Plugin csproj 4. If you need inspiration of how a csproj file looks you can have some inspiration from some of the MvvmCross project files.Īndroid Library: MvvmCross RecyclerView csproj The easiest way to migrate to the new project style and new TFM, is simply creating a new project and dragging over all your files, then adding all the project references and package references. If you compare the Playground.iOS csproj file in MvvmCross, it went from over 200 lines of code to 29, since the new SDK style projects are so more succinct. If you have other stuff, you may be doing something wrong. The only things you would really have in these new csproj files is defining Target Framework, Package References and Project References. This makes working with csproj files much easier, as they are not polluted with loads of definitions all over the place. Instead the new style just picks up any know file types and makes some sane assumptions about the build actions for the files and adds them automatically. The biggest advantage of these new project styles, is that you will not have to specify every single file in your project file that you want to compile. The new SDK style project has been available to use for a very long time. Migrating a project to new SDK style project NET MAUI, then you might also want to install the maui maui-android maui-ios workloads. You will need to install the appropriate workload for each Target Framework you intend to support in your library. For instance if you want Android and iOS you do: ![]() This is super easy and much nicer in my opinion, instead of having to open a UI tool you can easily update and install these tools in the command-line. NET to install a “workload” for each of these. Instead you will need to use a new feature in. are no longer distributed with Visual Studio. The bits for Android, iOS, macOS, mac catalyst etc. NET8.0 already, but also if you are for some reason on. NET 7.0 is out and newer versions of Visual Studio for Mac will pull this the things described here should also be working if even if you are on. So now I have a little bit of experience behind the belt. I have migrated a bunch of internal libraries and 6 Apps at work. Migrated NukeProxy which is a iOS Binding Library, which had to be converted to using XCFramework instead of a Fat library. I have done a couple of migrations, a huge one in MvvmCross which has a lot of target frameworks it targets. Hence, library authors need to migrate their projects to make them compatible. This makes Xamarin.iOS assemblies not forward compatible with the newer target frameworks. NET 6.0 you might have noticed this package gets pulled in, even though you have no other Package References. NET 6.0, these types are now added implicitly using the NuGet package .Internal. The breaking changes primarily are how NFloat and related types are now handled. You maybe we aware that net.0-ios targets are incompatible with Xamarin.iOS targets. So wanted to share some insights with everyone. ![]() I have already migrated every App I work on to NET7.0 and have done multiple releases to stores of these Apps. Increasingly closer, so I bet a lot of people are looking towards migrating to the newer bits. Additionally end of life of Xamarin is coming Migration of Xamarin Libraries and Apps to.
