xamarin-macios VS Roslyn

Xamarin.ios y Xamarin.Mac: Licencia MIT.

Try to build the project for Android and iOS respectively. If you suffered from the iOS build issue Error MT4109: Failed to compile the generated registrar code caused by Xcode 14, you can visit https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/15954 to find the solution. The issue can be fixed by installing xamarin.ios-16.0.0.72.pkg. To run the app on iOS 16, turn on Settings > Privacy & Security > Developer Mode.

See this for more info.

There is nothing planned. Downgrade immediately https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/15954

MAUI on iOS and MacCatalyst use: https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios

You can see in old issues like this how uncertain even the core team was about it. It's not really tenable to fly that blind.

I think they're still doing tooling updates for Xamarin for a while. For one, there are platforms that for now aren't (yet) moving to .NET 6 at all, such as watchOS. And second, they seem to have changed their Apple platforms tooling to basically dual-target Mono (for Xamarin) and .NET 6 (for MAUI).

Microsoft decided not to support the Apple Watch in .NET 6 (https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/8955), which made me uncertain as to its future on the Apple Watch - I was also interested in learning Swift and SwiftUI.

My understanding is that the .NET team is working toward this with Interceptors: https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/blob/main/docs/features/int...

.NET is a little smarter about switch code generation these days: https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/pull/66081

Recently, while creating some experimental C# source code generators (xafero/csharp-generators), I was just concatenating strings together. Like you do, you know, if things have to go very quickly. If you have a simple use case, use a formatted multi-line string or some template library like scriban. But I searched for a way to generate more and more complicated logic easily - like for example, adding raw SQL handler methods to my pre-generated DBSet-like classes for my ADO.NET experiment. You could now say: Use Roslyn and that's really fine if you look everything up in a website like SharpLab, which shows immediately the syntax tree of our C# code.

At runtime, the Case C# expressions are embedded into a function and dynamically compiled into an assembly using the Roslyn C# compiler. Then the function that contains the expression is called (e.g. CaseAvailableFunction.Availablle()). At runtime, the function provides various methods to access stored case values as well as the current input data.
