Hi,

I've upgraded to the latest version of DIS this week, and started converting solutions I'm working on over to Nuget packages, and migrate from packages.config to PackageReferences as per the Nuget help page.

I see from the help page that the versioning is showing as

A.B.C.D

  • "A.B.C" matches the DataMiner version (e.g. 10.2.0).
  • "D" is a revision number.

But looking at the versions available on the package manager they list specific versions of DataMiner.

We're running 10.1.0.0-11319-CU11 on our prod system at the moment (we will upgrade, but due to some bugs we're stuck on pre 10.2 versions).

For individual files like Skyline.DataMiner.Files.Interop.SLDms there's 10.1.0 which lists DM Version:10.1.0-11971 in the description.

For the main packages like Skyline.DataMiner.Dev.Common it doesn't have a 10.1.0, it starts from 10.1.0.1 which lists DM Version:10.1.0-12183 in the description.

Going by the versioning on the Nuget help page we should be using 10.1.0.6 though, is this correct? as it lists DM Version:10.1.0-12374 in the description.

Hi Philip,

You're correct in your assumption to use NuGet version 10.1.0.6.

12374 is the build number which is linked to CU21 of the 10.1.0 range. There is no harm in using this NuGet package since you're following the DM main release track which must be backwards compatible.
