.net 5 and .net 6 support

[Thandius]

Hey,

currently testing out freespire.office for .net 5 and 6 (coming out in November) and it looks like the document viewer is not supported currently likely due to the adoption of .net core into the mix...

LoadFromFile is generating {"Operation is not supported on this platform."}

This is similar to a different issue where I had to conver

Process.start(Filelocation)

to

Process.Start(new ProcessStartInfo(FileLoc) { UseShellExecute = true });

as it was also generating a similar message.

Is .net 5 and 6 going to be support? and if so will that be true for the free versions, or would we have to purchase so get get the latest version?


~Edit~

Looks like there was an answer to this on the DocViewer section specicaly.

With the unification of .net starting in .net 5 though my question about future support is still relevant, even if I have a workaround/answer to the specific DocViewer question

Hello,

Thanks for your inquiry.
Sorry to tell you that at present our Spire.DocViewer doesn’t support working on .NET5 platform. But we will consider adding it as a new feature to our upgrade list. If it can be implemented in the future, we will let you know.
