             Summary: Unify TargetFrameworks for C# projects
                 Key: AVRO-3238
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3238
             Project: Apache Avro
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Zoltan Csizmadia


h3. Issues:
 # If netstandard2.0 is a target, no need to add net462, sonce .NET FW 4.6.1+ 
supports using .NET STandard libraries
 # I dont think there is a need for .NET FW 4.0 support ay more
 # The csproj builds for different targets based on running on Windows or Linux
 # Many of the projects support different (maybe legacy) frameworks, e.g. ipc, 
ipc.test

h3. Proposal:
 # Add the following to {{common.props}} (root of all csharp projects):

 {{  <PropertyGroup Label="Target Frameworks">}}
{{<!-- Exe -->
    
<DefaultExeTargetFrameworks>netcoreapp3.1;net5.0</DefaultExeTargetFrameworks>
    <!-- Library -->
    
<DefaultLibraryTargetFrameworks>netstandard2.0;netstandard2.1</DefaultLibraryTargetFrameworks>
    <!-- Unit Tests -->
    
<DefaultUnitTestsTargetFrameworks>$(DefaultExeTargetFrameworks)</DefaultUnitTestsTargetFrameworks>
  </PropertyGroup>}} # Use the following for Exe projects:

 {{<TargetFrameworks>$(DefaultExeTargetFrameworks)</TargetFrameworks>}} # Use 
the following for Library projects:

 {{<TargetFrameworks>$(DefaultLibraryTargetFrameworks)</TargetFrameworks>}} # 
Use the following for Unit Tests projects:

 {{<TargetFrameworks>$(DefaultLibraryTargetFrameworks)</TargetFrameworks>}} # 
No Condition for Windows check is needed any more

h3. Pros
 # The projects builds are very uniform across Linux and Windows
 # New Target framework (e.g. the upcoming net6.0) is easy to add, just simple 
editing common.props

h3. Cons

.NET Framework 4.6+ will be supported (via .NET Standard 2.0), which in my 
opinion is acceptable in 2021
