README
FileHelpers
The FileHelpers are a free and easy to use .NET library to read/write data from fixed length or delimited records in files, strings or streams.
Current support for .NET Standard / .NET Core
Support for .NET Core is available through .NET Standard. Since version 3.3.0 support for .NET Standard 2.0 is available! There is a FileHelpers dll targeting .NET Standard 2.0 in the FileHelpers NuGet package.
The .NET Standard FileHelpers dll is a subset of the .NET Framework FileHelpers dll. The .NET Standard FileHelpers dll contains:
- FileHelperEngine
- MasterDetailEngine
- Attributes
- Converters
- Events
- ErrorManager
- Sorting of big files
The .NET Standard FileHelpers dll currently does not contain the following features:
- Dynamic: ClassBuilder and CsvClassBuilder. ClassBuilder is difficult to maintain and a rewrite in .NET Core / Standard as is, would require to reference three NuGet packages. There must be better ways to write record structures at runtime.
- SmartFormatDetector: depends on ClassBuilder (Dynamic).
- DataLink: code was very old and seemed not worth maintaining.
We do not have any plans to port the FileHelpers.ExcelNPOIStorage nor FileHelpers.ExcelStorage to .NET Core or .NET Standard.
