| Developing |
| ========== |
| |
| log4net targets a wide array of .net platforms, including some |
| which are out of support from Microsoft, making it difficult to |
| install relevant SDKs and build for those targets. In particular, |
| older Client Profile .NET Framework targets and dotnet core 1.1 |
| may be installed by using the bundled helper scripts: |
| |
| - [install-net-framework-sdk-3.5.ps1](install-net-framework-sdk-3.5.ps1) |
| - [install-dotnet-core-sdk-1.1.ps1](install-dotnet-core-sdk-1.1.ps1) |
| |
| These scripts download the relevant installers from Microsoft servers, |
| but you run them at your own risk. |
