Mremoteng: "Build Request" Migration to .Net Core

[lxwulf]

I saw that mRemoteNG is based on C# and Powershell both of them have a new framework called .NetCore/powerhsell core which works on Linux, Mac and for sure on Windows. Wouldnt be a nice idea to change to this framework to build also this awesome program on linux and mac?

WinForms are still windows only even with the core frameworks, also the RDP is very COM dependent which is again Windows only.

thats very sad but rdp connection should work over linux or mac because of freerdp or the implementation of remmina? right? or do i completly missunderstanding something?
winforms cant be merged to uwf or what is the other GUI implementation of the .net (core) framework

I think its a good idea to check: https://github.com/mRemoteNG/mRemoteNG/issues/308

The following librarie that we are using are _officially not supported_ in .net core:

mRemoteNGSPecs

• BouncyCastle

mRemoteNG

• BouncyCastle
• ConsoleControl
• DockPanelSuite
• DockPanelSuite.ThemeVS2003
• DockPanelSuite.ThemeVS2012
• DockPanelSuite.ThemeVS2013
• DockPanelSuite.ThemeVS2015
• ObjectListView.Official
• System.Xml.Linq

The nuget _NUnit.Extensions.Forms_ cannot be found at all. Maybe I'm missing something here...

[lxwulf]

Maybe this here helps for the BouncyCastle 🤔

https://www.nuget.org/packages/BouncyCastle.NetCore/

The other libraries are over my level 😅

This will need to be resolved https://github.com/cefsharp/CefSharp/issues/2796

Very nice this would make many things much easier. We look all forward to that projects and implementations.
