.NET Core 3 / .NET Standard 2.1

[Numpsy]

Hi,

I see that the most recent version of the library has been adapted to use the built in IAsyncEnumerable in .NET Core 3, but can I ask what the situation is with .NET Standard 2.1? (from a quick test, looks like it uses its own definition there rather than the built in version?).

Thanks.

@Numpsy, with the yesterday's official release of NET Core 3 and NET Standard 2.1 this library has been updated as well. Thanks for waiting!

@kind-serge Does an implementation of ParallellForEachAsync exist in .NET Core 3.0 or should we keep using your library?

[kind-serge]

@silkfire to my best knowledge ParallellForEachAsync does not exist in the latest .NET BCL and I have no info on whether it will be added or not. Keep using this library for now.

On a sort of related note - Microsoft have released a Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces package that has definitions of IAsyncEnumerable and such for versions of .NET prior to Standard 2.1.

Any thoughts on using ParallellForEachAsync with those definitions?

@Numpsy , thanks for the info! I was not aware of that package.
Apparently it works for .NET Standard 2.0 only and no lower versions.
It is an easy change, however will have to bump the major version of this library to accommodate these changes.

@Numpsy , the new version has been released: https://www.nuget.org/packages/AsyncEnumerator/4.0.0

Thanks, I'll give it a go.

I tried it in a .Net Standard 2.0 library called from a .Net 4.7.2 application and hit some errors about missing methods, i'm guessing because the library is using the interface definitions from the Microsoft package, but the build for the app is pulling in the .Net 4.5 build of AsyncEnumerator that doesn't contain matching methods?
(The Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces package does actually appear to contain a build for .Net 4.6.1 on top of the .Net standard version, so I think the app sees those ok.)

Seems like a .NET Fx 4.6.1 (and higher) project uses the .NET Fx 4.5 version of the library instead of .NET Std 2.0. I updated the NuGet Package with the .NET Fx 4.6.1 version of this library to be compatible with .NET Std 2.0 projects: https://www.nuget.org/packages/AsyncEnumerator/4.0.1

[Numpsy]

Thanks, that seems ok now.
