Microsoft apologized to the open source community after facing severe reactions to eliminating important features in the upcoming .NET 6 release.
The Open Source community is angry with Microsoft’s decision to remove the ability to reload heat from the .NET SDK Repo.
This feature is important because it helps developers to make changes to the course code when certain applications run and can see the results of changes instantly.
Microsoft has now announced that it has “approved a pull request” to reactivate this code path and will be available in the form of general availability .NET 6 SDK.
Microsoft previously decided to lock the ‘Hot Reload captability’ to Visual Studio 2022– which was limited to Windows and it was paid.
According to the report on the verge, the decision to delete this feature is “a business focused” taken by the head of Microsoft Division Developer Julia Liuson.
After reversing the decision to remove the ability to reload heat, Microsoft said, “First and foremost, we want to apologize.
We made a mistake in carrying out our decision and take longer than expected to respond to the community.” In his defense, Microsoft said In an official blog post “with the runway becomes short for the release of .NET 6 and Visual Studio 2022, we choose to focus on carrying Reload Hot to VS2022 first.
We made a mistake in carrying out this plan that way was done.” “We are done Accidentally finally deleting the source code instead of just not begging the code path.
We underestimate the number of developers depending on this ability, “he added.
According to the report by the threshold, the ‘Reload Hot Ability’ will be in the general availability of Build of .NET 6 SDK available on November 8, 2021.
