System requirements to run the software modified by SmartAssembly

SmartAssembly can be used on applications based on any of the following managed-code technologies:

• .NET 10
• .NET 9
• .NET 8
• .NET 7
• .NET 6
• .NET 5
• .NET Standard 1.6 up to .NET Standard 2.0
• .NET Core 2.0 up to .NET Core 3.1
• XNA (Xbox, PC applications)
• .NET Framework 2.0 up to .NET Framework 4.8

The application can be of any type, including Command Line, WinForms, WPF, ASP.NET or a Windows Service.

The application you build with SmartAssembly uses the same version of the .NET Framework as the original assembly.

SmartAssembly works on managed code only. If your application uses a mixture of managed and unmanaged code, the unmanaged code must not be in the main assembly. Any dependencies containing unmanaged code must be excluded in the SmartAssembly project.
