MarcEdit 7.2.x Updates

I posted two updates today

  1. Version 7.2.100 (which the auto update will pull down).
  2. Version 7.2.95 (which won’t be pulled down, but can be picked up from the main downloads page)

So why the two versions?  Version 7.2.100 shifts the .NET framework that the program targets from 4.6.1 to 4.7.2.  There are differences, and I had to make a handful of changes to the UI to correct some unsafe UI updating practices which 4.7.2 won’t all.  I believe I’ve caught them all.  If I’ve missed something and you get a UI error, let me know where and how to recreate so I can fix it.  The primary difference for users will be that 4.7.2 is faster, is part of the current .NET development branches (so I got to remove a number of workarounds I’d been keeping because I was using 4.6.1), and no longer supports Vista.  If you need to support Vista, you can go to the download page and pick up 7.2.95.  This is the last version built against 4.6.1 that will support Vista.

See the downloads page: https://marcedit.reeset.net/downloads if you want to see how I provide access to older versions should you ever have a need to downgrade (due to supported operating system or problematic bug or regression).
