At the end of last month, the team behind Reactive Extensions for .NET announced the release of Rx.NET major version 6.0. The latest version of the library brings several improvements and aligns itself with the current .NET ecosystem. The first notable change is that Rx.NET 6.0 now extends its support to the current versions of .NET, including .NET 6.0 and .NET 7.0. Based on the report, it is important to take note that even though the System.Reactive NuGet package doesnt include a net7.0 target, it fully supports .NET 7.0. To improve trimming capabilities, Rx.NET 6.0 introduces trimmability annotations in the net6.0 target. In terms of new features, Rx 6.0 incorporates enhancements to handle unhandled exceptions from wrapped Tasks and the public availability of the SingleAssignmentDisposableValue class. The Rx.NET team has invested significant effort in aligning the codebase with the current .NET tooling, ensuring that the library builds seamlessly on modern versions of Visual Studio and the .NET SDK.
