Migrate to .NET 10 by Copilot · Pull Request #642 · criticalmanufacturing/cli

Copilot · 2026-01-30T16:17:38Z

Migrates the CLI from .NET 8 to .NET 10. Addresses C# 13 breaking change, updates core dependencies, and ensures CI/CD compatibility.

Framework

Target framework: net8.0 → net10.0 across all projects
SDK: 10.0.102

Breaking Change Fix

C# 13 disallows ReadOnlySpan<T> in expression trees. string.Format() now uses params ReadOnlySpan<object?>, causing compiler errors in test assertions.

Before:

logger.Verify(x => x.Warning(string.Format(ErrorMessages.StartMethodMethodNameIsIncorrect, _baseClassName, wrongMethodName)), Times.Once);

After:

var expectedMessage = string.Format(ErrorMessages.StartMethodMethodNameIsIncorrect, _baseClassName, wrongMethodName);
logger.Verify(x => x.Warning(expectedMessage), Times.Once);

Fixed in ValidateStartAndEndMethods.cs (5 methods).

Dependencies

Microsoft.Extensions (8.0 → 10.0):

Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection → 10.0.2
System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager → 10.0.2

Microsoft.TemplateEngine (8.0 → 10.0):

Edge, IDE, Orchestrator.RunnableProjects → 10.0.102

Supporting:

NuGet.Versioning → 7.0.1 (required by TemplateEngine 10.x)

CI/CD

pr-tests.yml: Added .NET 10.0.x to matrix
npm-publish.yml: Updated to .NET 10.0.x

Verification

Tests: 317/325 pass (6 pre-existing network failures)
Linux x64 self-contained build: 257 MB
CLI functional: cmf --version, --help verified

Documentation

Created comprehensive migration documentation:

docs/migration/dotnet10-migration-plan.md (1,662 lines)
docs/migration/QUICK-START.md (243 lines)
docs/migration/MIGRATION-RESULTS.md (215 lines)
