.net NamedPipeClientChannel not found

Remoting SDK
1

I’m trying to connect a C# console application to a Delphi server using NamedPipe. After creating the Intf.cs file, I need to instantiate a new NamedPipeClientChannel, but this class does not appear to exist. I’m a little confused because there is documentation for this class (NamedPipeClientChannel) and inside the installation folder I can find the NamedPipeClientChannel.cs file.
I downloaded and installed the files

RemObjects Remoting SDK - 10.0.0.1559.exe
RemObjects Remoting SDK for .NET - 10.0.0.1559.exe

After that in VSCode I ran the command
dotnet add package RemObjects.SDK

If I try with another client channel like http (IpHttpClientChannel) it works normally.

What do I need to do to make VSCode recognize the NamedPipeClientChannel class?

It looks like right now the NamedPipe channel isn only support for classic .NET (ie .NET 4.8 and below) and not .NET Core (including .NET 5.0 and later, which are based on Core).

Now, right now i’m not sure if this is an oversight or, or due to limitations of .NET Core (which drops certain “legacy” APIs). but I will have a check to see if we can bring back support for .NET Core, in a future update.

For now, though, I’m afraid this is not supported unless you use Classic .NET 4.8 or below.
