Release Notes - 1.6

1.6.0-funcrel

Note

This extension now supports .NET 8 and as a result the Roslyn internal compiler used by com.castsoftware.dotnet has also been updated to release 4.10. Therefore any custom extensions that depend on com.castsoftware.dotnet will also need to be updated to ensure compatibility with Roslyn 4.10.
