  • Show HN: VSDoxyHighlighter – highlighting of Doxygen comments in Visual Studio
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 11 Jan 2023
    Visual Studio (not Code!) never provided built-in syntax highlighting of Doxygen commands in C/C++ comments. There used to be extensions for it in the past, but they are no longer maintained and are not available for the latest Visual Studio 2022. VSDoxyHighlighter fills the gap. It comes with two default color sets, one for dark and one for light VS themes. Highlighting can be enabled and disabled separately for “//”, “///”, “//!”, “/”, “/*” and “/!” comments.

  • .NET MAUI and .NET 6/7 we feel the assembly hell again

    There are a few tools that can help in the process. Years back I used a tool named Project2015to2017: https://github.com/hvanbakel/CsprojToVs2017. Since then, Microsoft also released a tool: https://github.com/dotnet/upgrade-assistant. There was also this tool but it looks like it has been discontinued: https://github.com/microsoft/dotnet-apiport
  • Aug 9, 2022 - Microsoft releases .NET Framework 4.8.1 - for Windows 10+ and Windows Server 2022+ only?
    1 project | /r/dotnet | 16 Aug 2022
    Then why does it matter that .NET Framework 4.8.1 doesn't support old servers. You're already on borrowed time. .NET Framework will probably EOL somewhere around 2026-27. If the cost to migrate to .NET 6 isn't worth it, then you might as well start retiring the software because you're basically saying it's not important enough to keep updated. The migration from 4.6+ to .NET 6 really isn't difficult unless you've got some weird obscure dependencies that haven't been updated yet and aren't open source. Have you even tried the portability analyzer? I work in consulting, and we hear this a lot, "oh our code is just too old and it's too much effort to port it to .NET Core", and from what I've seen the last few years, unless your project is still running in VB.NET with Web Forms and ASP, you can most likely upgrade to .NET 6 with way less effort than you expect.
