are below mentioned packages windows-specific dependencies?

Question

My web application is using below packages,

1. System.Security.Principal.Windows
2. WindowsAzure.Storage
3. Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ConfigurationManager
4. System.windows.forms
5. this particular application also has .resx files

It does not have .xaml files,

while migrating to .net6 using upgrade assistant autmatically migrated to WPF and so it added Target framework as .net6.0-windows and output type as .exe.

Do you think above mentioned are windows-specific dependencies, which caused to migrate webapplication to wpf and output type as exe?

 

Answer 1

System.Security.Principal.Windows is being ported, not all features may work in non-widows environment

WindowsAzure.Storage is obsolete, and should be replaced, perhaps with Azure.Storage.Blobs

Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ConfigurationManager is obsolete. see:

System.Windows.Forms is windows only
