Support for .Net Standard

[trembon]

Hello,
Are there any plans to support .Net Standard?
I tried to change the project to Standard 2.0 and added the MySql.Data 8.0.10-rc reference from Nuget without any compiler errors, but havent tested it yet.
So at first glance, there seems to be no code changes need to be made.

Yes sure, the coding used in MySqlBackup.NET is common C# methods and basic syntax. It is backward compatible supports .NET 2.0 as well as forward compatible until .NET Standard 2.0 and even future version.

I'll release the binary of .Net Standard at later time.

I faced a problem converting the code into .Net Standard 1.3
System.Timers does not exist in .NET Standard
some search in Google tells that System.Timers has to be replaced by System.Threading.Timers
and the coding is slightly different.
I will release .NET Standard version at a later time if I have solved the problem.

Can you just use .NetStandard2.0?

Hey adriancs2,
do you have any idea, when you will release the .NetStandard-Lib on Nuget?
Thanks kl1mm

excuse the renewed disturbing but are you still planning the .NetStandard implementation and the release on nuget?

i finally got some time to help you look into this.
i managed to convert to project to .Net Standard 2.0 and it compiled without any warnings.
Are you sure you have to converted the projects to 2.0?
If you have problems i can see if i can find time to do a PR with a raw upgrade of the two projects

Yes, you're welcome
