Upgrade .NET version support for AF SDK

Please add support for .NET Core to the AF SDK. Currently only full .NET Framework is supported.

    Jan 7, 2026

    The version of AF SDK targeting .NET 8 is currently in the submittal phase, with a projected release in January 2026.

    For our initial release, we are not targeting compatibility with Linux devices.

    Is there any news on when this update will be released?

    It is disappointing to see the January 2026 release window pass without an update, especially given how long this has been in development.
    Also, why was a Beta or Release Candidate (RC) never made available? Providing early access would have allowed the community to validate compatibility with modern .NET workflows and begin internal migrations sooner. Furthermore, a public beta might have surfaced the current release hurdles earlier, providing much-needed transparency for those of us trying to budget resources and developer hours around these shifting timelines.

    .NET 8 end of support is November of this year (2026).

    Will the updated SDK be released before their target framework is deprecated? The users are watching the race with bated breath!

    Still waiting for the January release in February...

    Since the projected release was January 2026 and it’s now February, could you share whether there is an updated release timeline?

    Regarding the admin response "For our initial release, we are not targeting compatibility with Linux devices", is there another ticket I can monitor for Linux support? If not can one be created to target support for running on RHEL.

    Can we by chance get an updated release target date?

    Just checking in to make sure I have not missed the release. I am not seeing it in the customer portal products section.

    Do we know if the release date has changed?

    Appreciate all the work that it takes to make this release possible.

    It seems that every time I come back here the release is pushed back further. First its first half of 2025, then second half of 2025, then by the end of the year, now January 2026. There's 5 more days in January... And still, nothing. Quite frustrating I must admit.

    Appreciate the update that a .net 8 release is projected for January 2026. However I want to point out that .net 8 end of life is already approaching this year, in November 10, 2026. When will Aveva be releasing a .net 10 version of the AF SDK? It is really holding the ecosystem back to not be able to do development on the .net versions officially supported by Microsoft.

    Just checked the product download portal and didn't see the release yet. I am with Steve, see below comment. Is there a more refined release date available?

    Appreciate all the work that it takes to make this release possible.

    Any update on that ?

    All I want for Christmas this year is a .NET 8 version of the AF SDK... :)

    Please can we get an update on a release? It's been nearly a year since the last communication, please update.

  • GaryYegiazaryan

    .NET 10 was release on 11/11/2025 and .NET 8 goes out of support on 11/10/2026. There are serious performance improvements between .NET 8 and .NET 10 so at this point there is no reason to target .NET 8 anymore. Can AVEVA provide an updated timeline and target dotnet version?

    Just checking in. Any updates on this release? Any chance to get a preview release?

    Any Update for the ETA on this?

  • Ken Saraf

    This is already the second half of 2025 and we have allocated budget and resources in anticipation for this product... We will greatly appreciate updates on the status of this work and an ETA for when we can expect it.
