Introduce UI option to choose between System.Graphics and ImageSharp for image processing. Update DataModel and MainForm for robust binding and synchronization. Rewrite ImageCreatorAlternate to use ImageSharp for core operations and GDI+ for overlays. Remove test buttons, add radio group for library selection. Update project dependencies to support new features and modernize image handling.
Introduce IImageCreator interface for image creation, and update ImageCreatorSharp to implement it. Add ImageCreatorAlternate (adapter) and ImageCreatorMapper (runtime selector) classes. Extend PicSettings with ImageCreatorProvider to control backend selection. Update DI registrations and refactor ImageCreationStuff to depend on IImageCreator, enabling backend switching via configuration.
Enhance versioning by prioritizing GitVersion output for assembly, file, and informational versions. Add fallback MSBuild target to run GitVersion CLI in Visual Studio builds. Update publish rename logic to use FullSemVer and improve version normalization for artifact naming.
- Switch to explicit "3.2.0" next-version in GitVersion.yml
- Update NuGet packages and set assembly name to "ImageCatalog"
- Add MSBuild target to rename published exe with year and version
- Add AppVersion property to DataModel, set via IVersionProvider
- Replace static version label with data-bound versionLabel in UI
- Remove manual version label logic from MainForm
- Update DI to inject IVersionProvider into DataModel
- Ensures UI always shows correct version and builds are versioned
- Added GitVersion for semantic versioning and build metadata
- Introduced IVersionProvider and VersionProvider for UI-friendly version display
- MainForm now uses IVersionProvider for version label
- Registered VersionProvider in DI container
- Improved logging: filtered out AutoMapper license logs
- General code cleanup in Program.cs
Dialogs now remember last-used folders for source, destination, logo, and settings files by storing these paths in a user preferences file under LocalApplicationData. Preferences are saved on form close, reducing unnecessary writes. SettingsService now uses a temporary ParametriSetup for settings files to avoid polluting user preferences. Error handling ensures preference save failures do not disrupt the user. This separation improves user experience and keeps user preferences distinct from project settings.
Enhanced speed counter with smoothing and elapsed time display.
Added folder open buttons to UI and repositioned speed label.
Added UpdateSubdirectories to settings for persistence.
- Added MaddoShared.Benchmarks project with BenchmarkDotNet for comprehensive image processing performance tests (parallel, chunk, size, stress).
- Included helper for generating test images and custom configs to ensure InProcess toolchain for .NET Windows compatibility.
- Added cross-platform scripts to run benchmarks easily.
- Updated .gitignore for benchmark artifacts and temp files.
- Exposed GetFilesToProcessPublic in ImageCreationStuff for testability.
- Added file name sanitization in ImageCreatorSharp to prevent IO errors.
- Enhanced WinForms UI: added "Open" buttons for source/destination folders, handled folder opening in Explorer, and improved user messaging and layout.
- Updated solution file to include new benchmark project.
- Switched MaddoShared.Tests.csproj to Microsoft.NET.Sdk, added explicit MSTest and test SDK package references, and upgraded Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Abstractions to 10.0.2.
- Added assessment.csv, assessment.json, and assessment.md with detailed .NET 10.0 compatibility analysis.
- Updated MaddoLibrary submodule reference (now marked as dirty).
