Upgrade NuGet tool to latest .Net

[dingdonglars]

This repo helped me get through signing a VSIX package in our Azure DevOps pipeline using a certificate in Azure Key Vault. Great!

However, my first attempts a running this on our build server, the OpenVsixSignTool failed due to a dependency on Net Core 2.1:

The pipeline does an install immediately before attempting to sign and seems to get the current, stable version 0.3.2

Once I installed the (deprecated) Net Core 2.1 as mentioned in the error message above on the build server, the signing works.

It is possible to push a new version of the tool to NuGet to be able to run under newest Net 8.0?

Thanks!

hi dingdonglars
what os are you running on ? even if i installed both the SDK and the runtime of .net core 2.1 i still get a "The system detected an overrun of a stack-based buffer in this application. This overrun could potentially allow a malicious user to gain control of this application." from the wer file and im not able to sign my vsix file.

i tried on windows 11 (client)
in my action-runner it used to work with visual studio 2022 17.8.8 but now, after upgrading to 17.12.5 (with same workload for both) it does not work anymore.

I think the developer has abandon this :(

quesiton: what os do you use and did you do anything else to make it work ?'

thank you

We run this in an Azure DevOps pipeline in our privately hosted agent. The agent runs on a Windows Server 2019, so a bit aged. I have not tried on Windows 10/11 nor from inside Visual Studio. I have not experienced the error you get. Once Net Core 2.1 was installed it worked. Sorry I cannot assist more.

Yeah, I think this is abandoned :-( so we a kinda stuck in Net Core 2.1 at the moment

I'll get a new release up on modern .NET soon. Sorry for the (big) delay in that.

No problem! Really great that you are doing the upgrade, thanks!
