Hello,
Db2 Connect team is actively working on this and plan to ship this item [.NET EF 6.4] by Dec 2020.
In regard to .NET Core 3.1, its in plan for June 2020 delivery. I am sure, some/most of you in this forum are already on pre-release [BETA] programme.
Thanks!
From the answers, I am getting nobody has any idea about the status of .NET Core 3.x DB2 EF client, which worries me because it takes IBM years to update anything for .NET. And .NET Core 2.2 is not supported anymore and there is no DB2 .NET client for .NET 3.1 so we are stuck with .NET 2.2 and developing applications for .NET Core 2.2 or .NET 4.8 or going to Java, maybe that's what IBM wants.
Yes, Please. I do not understand why IBM is not supporting .NET Core 3.x - It runs on Linux.
IBM has .NET Core 2.2 DB2 EF, but it does not work with .NET Core 3.x and I would like to run my .NET apps on Linux. Microsoft's recommendation is to develop new applications in .NET Core 3.x, but you can't if you are using DB2 as the backend.
Sorry, I created a duplicate. This is also covered under this request: https://ibm-data-and-ai.ideas.aha.io/ideas/DB2CON-I-48
