Support for dotnet framework4.8

[Daniel12321]

We are using Insight Database in a dotnet4.8 framework project. Is it possible to get support for this version in 8.0.1 and up?

• Dotnet version: [dotnet framework 4.8]
• Database: [SQL Server]
• Library version: [8.0.1]

Ah - I didn't realize that Microsoft was keeping net48 alive with versions of the Windows OS.

Unfortunately, I currently don't have regular access to a Windows machine for builds, so it will take me some time to get that set up again. But Insight v6 and v8 are mostly identical so you can use that for now.

+1 for this. I'm using .net framework 4.8 as well and nuget is nagging me to upgrade but I can't, because of this issue.

I'm going to try this to clean up the build process:

@jfrank14 @Daniel12321

can one of you try the build off of this branch:

https://github.com/jonwagner/Insight.Database/compare/net48

[jfrank14]

I checked out this branch and it built successfully. Was there anything else you wanted to know about the build?

[jonwagner]

I know the branch builds but I don't have a .net 4.8 project to test it in. it would be great just to get a sanity check that it works there.

Is it enough to replace the Insight* files in the bin folder? The only way I know there's an issue is that NuGet won't let me upgrade, but to test that would require publishing to NuGet.

actually...I can do a prerelease build and you can test it.

[jonwagner]

ok... I pushed version 8.0.2-beta1. That should contain the net48 versions. LMK if that works and I'll convert it to a release build.

I just tried that beta version on a 4.8 project and it upgraded. I haven't tried to run it yet, because there are some other reference issues, but does knowing that NuGet worked answer enough of the question for you, or do you also want confirmation that it runs without error?
