NServiceBus.RabbitMQ does not support RabbitMQ.Client 6.0

[HermannGruber]

Recently our team ran into a problem with RabbitMQ.Client 5.2, and we solved temporarily it with a workaround. The RabbitMQ.Client team fixed the problem, and released a new major version, namely 6.0. But the latest version of NServiceBus.RabbitMQ is not compatible with that version. What are the plans for a release of your product that supports the new major version of RabbitMQ.Client?

@HermannGruber We just released a version targeting 5.2

Version 6.0 was release 6 days ago and introduced some breaking changes which need to be addressed.

[HermannGruber]

@ramonsmits thank you for your quick answer! Of course, this takes time - it would be very kind if you drop a line here once the plans for supporting the 6.0 version become more concrete, if this fits with your process.

[HermannGruber]

More than a month has passed since my initial inquiry. Are the breaking changes introduced with 6.0 difficult to address? Or is the issue I opened more of a low prio thing? I don't want to be pushy - it simply would be interesting for my team to have a rough estimate.

Also need support for RabbitMQ.Client 6.0

EasyNetQ supports RabbitMQ.Client 6.0 since version 4.0.0. Now it is impossible to use EasyNetQ >= 4.0.0 and NServiceBus.RabbitMQ in one application.

This issue has now been prioritized and will be picked up. We are working on several other things (not RabbitMQ related) as well, so it might take a couple of weeks before a new release appears.

[ramonsmits]

Development of supporting RabbitMQ.Client 6.1 has started. This will be a breaking change and be part of 6.0.0.

[HermannGruber]

Is there already an estimate when 6.0.0 will be released? Previous releases were as follows:

5.0.0 May 2018
4.0.0 Oct 2016
3.0.0 Jun 2015

Extrapolating from that, I would have expected the next major release around late 2019 :-) But, I guess the cadence slows down as the product matures?

[dvdstelt]

We're working on some other stuff as well, but the new client library has already been included.
#639

After the other work, we'll release it. Probably a matter of weeks at most. Likely sooner.

[HermannGruber]

This is really great! Thanks a lot, both for your effort and for the feedback.

NServiceBus.RabbitMQ 6.0.0 has been released, and it works with RabbitMQ.Client 6.1.0.
