The structure of .NET Core packages has been changed to provide packages per product

What Changed

The following packages have been removed:

  • DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Wpf.Layout
  • DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Wpf.Navigation
  • DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Wpf.Layout.Core

Reasons for This Change

We have adjusted the structure of our NuGet packages for .NET Core, so that each package corresponds to a specific product.

Impact on Existing Apps

If you use any of these packages, excepting DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Wpf, replace them as follows:

  • DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Wpf.Layout -> DevExpress.Wpf.LayoutControl + DevExpress.Wpf.Docking
  • DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Wpf.Navigation -> DevExpress.Wpf.Accordion
  • DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Wpf.Layout.Core -> DevExpress.Wpf.Docking

How to Update Existing Apps

If you use the PackageReference NuGet reference format, run the ProjectConverter to update the .csproj (.vbproj) file.

If you use the packages.config NuGet reference format, you should migrate to the PackageReference format before running the ProjectConverter. Refer to the following tutorial: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/consume-packages/migrate-packages-config-to-package-reference
