  • Future of OCLC integrations and MarcEdit

    I sent this to the MarcEdit listserv, but am posting this here as well. No decisions have been made, and I’m looking for community feedback so that whatever changes I make — if any — work best long-term for the community. ** Hi folks, I wanted to update folks on some changes and get some…

  • MarcEdit 7.6.x update

    MarcEdit 7.6.x has been posted.  It includes a lot of changes, including a new installer – so if you are installing on many devices, I might make sure you test the install prior to updating.  However, now that the installers have been built, getting new versions created will be much easier.  Things in this version:…

  • MarcEdit 7.6.x: Consolidating help

    Over the past 4 months, I’ve been working on the MarcEdit code-base. It’s large, and I’ve been needing to pay down some technical debt — including — making some significant changes to support breaking changes in .NET 6. At this point, the work is done, and a number of new versions will be showing up…

  • MarcEdit 7.5 Installer Questions

    Hi all, As I continue to refine the Installer for 7.5 – I had a couple of specific questions. How the installer works now When the installer first runs, the first step is a dependency evaluation.  MarcEdit requires the following dependencies to run the core program: .NET 5.0 Desktop Runtime (32 bit or 64 bit/32…

  • MarcEdit: State of the Community *2020-2021

    * Sigh – original title said 2019-2020.  Obviously, this is for this past year (Jan. 2020-Dec. 31, 2020).   Per usual, I wanted to take a couple minutes and look at the state of the MarcEdit project. This is something that I try to do once a year to gauge the current health of the community,…

  • MarcEdit 7.5 Update Status

    I’m planning to start making testing versions of the new MarcEdit instance available around the first of the year broadly, to a handful of testers in mid-Dec.  The translation from .NET 4.7.2 to .NET 5 was more significant than I would have thought – and includes a number of swapped default values – so hunting…

  • Changes to System.Diagnostics.Process in .NET Core

    In .NET Core, one of the changes that caught me by surprise is the change related to starting processes.  In the .NET framework – you can open a web site, file, etc. just by using the following:\ System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(path); However, in .NET Core – this won’t work.  When trying to open a file, the process will…

  • MarcEdit 7.2.160 Updates

    There is one update that I want to highlight related to the new update, and that related to the installer.  I noticed that with the Windows 10 2020-04 cumulative update, registry reflection (the process of moving registry keys into the 32-bit hive), has affected the MarcEdit installer.  This directly impacts the applications ability to determine…
