Jenkins CI Build Status

This repository contains the class libraries for .NET Core. This is a work in progress, and does not currently contain the entire set of libraries that we plan on open sourcing. Make sure to watch this repository in order to be notified as we make changes to and expand it. Check out this blog post that explains our OSS strategy and road map in more detail.

Today, the repository contains the following components:

  • Microsoft.Win32.Primitives. Provides common types supporting the implementation of Win32-based libraries.

  • Microsoft.Win32.Registry. Provides support for accessing and modifying the Windows Registry.

  • System.Collections.Immutable. Provides a set of immutable collection types that make it easy to keep mutable state under control without sacrificing performance or memory footprint. You can read more about them on MSDN.

  • System.Console. Provides the Console class, which enables access to the standard input, output, and error streams for console-based applications.

  • System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo. Provides useful functionality for querying and examining the version information of physical files on disk.

  • System.Diagnostics.Process. Provides access to local and remote processes, and enables the starting and stopping of local system processes.

  • System.IO.Pipes. Provides types that enable a means for interprocess communication through anonymous and/or named pipes.

  • System.Linq.Parallel. Provides a parallelized implementation of LINQ to Objects. "Parallel LINQ" (PLINQ) implements the full set of LINQ standard query operators as well as additional operators specific to parallel operations.

  • System.Numerics.Vectors. Provides a set of basic vector types that leverage single instruction, multiple data (SIMD) CPU instructions. See our recent announcements for more details.

  • System.Reflection.Metadata. Provides a highly-tuned, low-level ECMA-335 metadata reader. This is the same reader used by "Roslyn" C# and Visual Basic compilers to parse assemblies.

  • System.Text.RegularExpressions. Provides a regular expression engine. The types in this library provide useful functionality for running common operations using regular expressions.

  • System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow. Provides a set of types that support actor/agent-oriented designs through primitives for in-process message passing, dataflow, and pipelining. "TPL Dataflow" builds upon the APIs and scheduling infrastructure provided by the Task Parallel Library (TPL), and integrates with the language support for asynchrony provided by C#, Visual Basic, and F#.

  • System.Xml. Provides DOM APIs such as the XDocument and XmlDocument types, XLinq, and the corresponding XPath extension methods.

More libraries are coming soon. Stay tuned!
