We have updated the .NET SDKs to 6.0.106 and 3.1.420.

The accompanying 3.1.X runtime is still in support, and will continue to receive security updates. See the .NET support policy. Users who wish to remain on Visual Studio 2019 for Mac do so with an understanding that the environment is now only partially secure.

General

  • We have updated the .NET Core SDKs to 5.0.404 and 3.1.415.

  • On Apple Silicon (M1 or Arm64) machines, the November releases of the .NET 5.0, 6.0 and .NET Core 3.1 x64 SDKs are not currently supported by Visual Studio for Mac 8.10. This is because the new x64 .NET SDKs install into a different directory and Visual Studio for Mac currently only supports the original .NET SDK install location, which is now only used by the Arm64 SDK.
    • The check for updates dialog will not show updates for any SDKs until a later release of Visual Studio for Mac 8.10 adds support for the new SDKs.
    • If the November releases of .NET 5.0, 6.0 or .NET Core 3.1 x64 SDKs are installed, then these should be removed, and the October releases installed instead.
    • Also note that the .NET 6 Arm64 SDK is not supported by Visual Studio for Mac 8.10.

Known Issues

The following is a list of all existing known issues in Visual Studio 2019 for Mac version 8.10:

  • The New Project dialog does not display .NET 6.0 since C# 10 is used by .NET 6 project templates and is not supported by Visual Studio for Mac 8.10.
  • On Apple Silicon (M1 or Arm64) machines, old .NET SDKs must be uninstalled before installing the December releases. This is because the new x64 .NET SDKs install into a different directory and the original location is now only used by the Arm64 SDK.
    • After installing Visual Studio for Mac 8.10.15 the check for updates dialog will show latest SDKs. During the update process the updater application will show an alert if it detects the old SDKs and will provide the option to remove them. The same option is available in the 8.10.15 installer.
    • Also note that the .NET 6 Arm64 SDK is not supported by Visual Studio for Mac 8.10.
    • Learn how to uninstall .NET with these instructions.
  • Under certain conditions, a "System.EntryPointNotFoundException" exception appears when deploying Xamarin.Forms projects to an iOS device. We're currently working on a fix which will be released shortly.
  • After installing the latest .NET 5 SDK, developers of .NET Core 3.1 apps might see an error indicating "The ASP.NET Core developer certificate is in an invalid state.". Running dotnet dev-certs https --clean then dotnet dev-certs https --trust from the Terminal will fix the issue.
  • In rare cases, it's possible to be up to date with everything but the .NET Core 3.1.300 SDK. If you enter into this configuration and update to .NET Core 3.1.300 using the updater, the notification to update the .NET Core SDK will not disappear until the IDE is restarted.
  • On Big Sur gRPC projects may fail to build with an error protoc" exited with code 255. This is a problem with macOS platform detection in the gRPC.Tools NuGet package that is used by default in the project templates. A workaround is to update the gRPC.Tools NuGet package to version 2.34.0 or later.
  • In some cases, Android projects may fail to build with an error The Java SDK could not be found, please set the path to it in the Xamarin.Android SDKs settings panel. A workaround is to execute the following command in a Terminal: mkdir -p ~/Library/Android/sdk.
