ExelDna runtime version

[Dan]

My name is Daniil and I am writing to you to ask about how to change the target runtime version. 'Cos I am changing my .csproj file with:
  <ExcelDnaRuntimeVersion>v8.0.12</ExcelDnaRuntimeVersion> ?????????? (not sure about that, it's not supporting)
  <RollForward>LatestPatch</RollForward>
and nothing has changed. I am opening the target location of build, opening .dna and runtimeconfig.json files and they are "v8.0". 

If you can help me, just let me know. I am counting on you.

Best regards,
Daniil

Hi Daniil,

I think the exact runtime version control feature you're looking for is only implemented in Excel-DNA v1.9.0.

Suppose you want to target a specific .NET runtime build. Then you would configure like this in the project file.

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFramework>net8.0-windows</TargetFramework>
    <RuntimeFrameworkVersion>8.0.6</RuntimeFrameworkVersion>
    <RollForward>Disable</RollForward>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="ExcelDna.AddIn" Version="1.9.0-beta1" />
  </ItemGroup>  
</Project>

You'll see the version and RollForward option reflected in the generated .runtimeconfig.json file

  "runtimeOptions": {
    "tfm": "net8.0",
    "rollForward": "Disable",
    "framework": {
      "name": "Microsoft.NETCore.App",
      "version": "8.0.6"
    },
    "configProperties": {
      "System.Runtime.Serialization.EnableUnsafeBinaryFormatterSerialization": false
    }
  }
}

And also in the generated .dna file (generated by the build when you don't have a .dna file in your project directory)

<DnaLibrary RuntimeFrameworkVersion="8.0.6" RollForward="Disable" Name="TestExactVersion Add-In" RuntimeVersion="v8.0" xmlns="http://schemas.excel-dna.net/addin/2020/07/dnalibrary">
  <ExternalLibrary Path="TestExactVersion.dll" ExplicitExports="false" LoadFromBytes="true" Pack="true" IncludePdb="false" />
</DnaLibrary>

Then when loading the add-in, if the matching runtime version cannot be loaded, you should see a clear error message.

You can also use other RollForward options like "LatestPatch" as expected.

Does Excel support 3D reference types？
