New major release: 4.0.0

More than a year ago we released the last major release of our Firely .NET SDK (version 3.0) , so it was about time to publish the new major release, version 4.0. In a major release, we allow ourselves to add some breaking changes, clean up some code, and make some code improvements. We have kept these breaking changes to a minimum so that the transition from version 3.x to 4 is not too difficult.

Version 4.0.0 contains:

  • New and faster Json deserializer (parser) and serializer. We use the System.Text.Json library now. See documentation about this new serializer on this page
  • New and faster Xml serializer. The deserializer will be released in following release.
  • We don't target framework netstandard1.6 anymore, but added net6.0. So the following frameworks are supported: net6.0, netstandard2.0 and net452. Since net452 will no longer be supported by Microsoft on April 26, 2022, version net452 will only be available in this major version (4.x)
  • a new resource resolver FhirPackageSource, which can resolve resources from a FHIR package
  • Cleaned up some stale code
  • New package icon
