ReactJS.NET 1.4 - Support for ASP.NET 5

March 2, 2015 by Daniel Lo Nigro


I'm happy to announce the release of ReactJS.NET 1.4! This release adds support for the beta version of ASP.NET 5, better handling of server-side console.log calls, and the V8 JavaScript engine is now included as standard (the MSIE engine is still available for use, though).

Full list of changes:

  • #47 and #94Support for ASP.NET 5. You must be using Visual Studio 2015 CTP6 and ASP.NET 5 Beta 3. Documentation will be added to the site shortly.
  • #86console calls such as console.log during server-side rendering will automatically be propagated to the client-side. This can greatly assist in debugging server-side rendering. Nicer debugging tools will come in the future!
  • #96 — Bundle V8 support by default, stop relying on MSIE engine as much.
  • #97 — Upgrade to JSPool 0.2. This improves the handling of JavaScript engines by recycling them after a number of uses, which ensures memory usage doesn't keep growing over time.
  • #89 — Fixed "Object doesn't support property or method 'defineProperty'" with MSIE engine when using Flow types.
  • #69 — Support for OWIN. Thanks to Marcin Drobik.
  • #70 — JsxTransformer exceptions now include whole inner exception. Thanks to Marcin Drobik.
  • #84 — Fixed missing strong name on System.Web.Optimization.React and React.MSBuild.
  • #67 — ReactJS.NET website now has a fancy logo. Thanks Rick Beerendonk!

Have fun, and as always, please feel free to send feedback or bug reports on GitHub.
