Net35.Actions 1.4.0.2

Net35.Actions

A small, portable library that provides action/delegate related utilities and helpers for multiple .NET target frameworks, including older frameworks such as .NET 2.0/3.5 and modern netstandard2.0.

This repository builds the Net35.Actions library for several TFMs so it can be used from legacy applications as well as newer projects.

Supported frameworks

• .NET Standard 2.0
• .NET Framework 4.5
• .NET Framework 4.0
• .NET Framework 3.5
• .NET Framework 3.0
• .NET Framework 2.0

Purpose

The goal of this project is to provide lightweight helper types and extension methods that make it easier to work with Action, delegates and small task-like patterns across a wide range of .NET framework versions.

This is especially useful when maintaining or porting older code bases that require compatibility with older TFMs while still wanting small, tested helpers.

Building from source

• Open the solution or the Net35.Actions project in Visual Studio (the multi-targeting project includes conditional compilation for older TFMs).
• Build the project using Visual Studio or use msbuild for older framework builds. For netstandard2.0 you can also use dotnet build.

Examples:

• Visual Studio: File → Open → Project/Solution, then Build Solution
• Command line (modern SDK): dotnet build (targets netstandard2.0)
• Command line (MSBuild): msbuild /p:Configuration=Release (for legacy TFMs)

Note: Building older TFMs may require older developer packs/targeting packs installed on the machine.

Usage

Add the project as a project reference in your solution or reference the compiled assembly from your project.

Then import the library namespace and use the available helpers. Example:

// Example usage (namespace and APIs may vary depending on what parts of the library you need)
using Net35.Actions;

// ... use helpers provided by the library ...

If the project is published as a NuGet package (check the package feed or releases in the repository), you can install it via NuGet and consume it like any other package.

Tests

If unit tests exist in the repository, run them using your test runner of choice. For older TFMs, use a compatible test runner/version.

Contributing

Contributions are welcome. Please follow these guidelines:

• Open an issue to discuss any major changes or feature requests before implementing them.
• Keep changes small and focused and include unit tests where appropriate.
• Ensure the library still builds for the supported TFMs or update the README if a TFM is intentionally dropped.
