One of the first steps in our recommended migration strategy focuses on migrating class libraries from .NET Framework (netfx) 3.5 and later to .NET Standard 2.0+
Scenario¶
In this scenario, we have an existing class library called Library in use with the ASP.NET Web Forms project called WebProject. This library provides simple accounting formulas to the web application and was originally written with .NET Framework 4.5.
The changes prescribed will convert Library to .NET Standard 2.0 and update references in WebProject to allow it to continue using Library. This change allows Library to be referenced by a Blazor or .NET Core project in the future.
Why does this work?¶
The code included in this library is simple and references APIs used in the .NET Framework base class library that are all available in .NET Standard 2.0 and lower versions.
Reference Code¶
You can find the starting code for this sample in the start folder and the resultant code in the completed folder.
