Hi,

I hate to be that guy, but....

Can we get an update on the plans for supporting .NET 10?

I'm aware that there is usually a release in the early months of the new year for a new .NET release, but it would be nice to get confirmation from someone.

Thanks,
Cuinn.

  • The latest official IBM NuGet package for Db2 currently targets .NET 8.0 and higher, and IBM mentions compatibility with future frameworks starting from .NET 8 onward. There’s also a note that the package can be referenced in projects using .NET 10 preview 4, which suggests IBM is preparing for .NET 10 support in upcoming releases. 

  • IBM has not yet published a formal roadmap or confirmed release date for full .NET 10 support. Historically, IBM tends to update its .NET provider early in the year following a major .NET release, but no official announcement for .NET 10 has been made so far. 

  • For now, if you need Db2 connectivity in .NET 10 preview projects, you can use the existing NuGet package since it already supports .NET 8+ and includes compatibility hooks for .NET 10 previews.
