Dangl.Common

This library contains common, shared functionality.

CI Builds

CI builds are available via MyGet

https://www.myget.org/F/dangl/api/v3/index.json

Compatibility

This project targets both netstandard1.3 and net45. Due to .Net 4.5.2 being the currently latest supported version by Microsoft and the xUnit test suite, no tests are run for net45 and net451.

Classes

BindableBase

Base class for property binding with INotifyPropertyChanged.

StringEncryptionExtensions

Encryption and decryption methods using AES and PBKDF2.

StringExtensions

Sanitize() method to normalize line endings to current environments default and to also trim whitespaces at each line end
ToBase64() and FromBase64() methods
Compress() / Decompress methods using GZip and returning Base64 output
WithMaxLength(int maxLength) to limit the length of a string by dropping everything above a max length

StringHashExtensions

Extensions to produce MD5 and SHA256 values for strings.

DecimalExtensions

WithMaxAbsoluteValue(int maxValueAbsolute) to limit a decimal to a maximum value. This works for both negative and positive decimals, e.g. -3m.WithMaxAbsoluteValue(2) returns -2

TrulyObservableCollection

Collection that notifies of item changes (add, delete) as well as whenever a child item that implements INotifyPropertyChanged is changed.

Supported Frameworks

The library supports netstandard1.3, netstandard2.0 as well as net45. Binaries for the full framework are separately generated for older build tools that do not properly integrate with .NET Standard. If supported by the tooling (Visual Studio 2017 or the dotnet CLI should be fine), it's advised to use the netstandard1.3 target. When using .NET Standard, all features should be available on Windows, Linux and Mac OS, but unit and integration tests are only performed for the following frameworks on Windows:

netcoreapp2.1
netcoreapp2.0
net461
net46
net47
net452

There are no known issues with other configurations, but neither is their functionality tested.
