September 2025 monthly summary for Dynamo (repo: DynamoDS/Dynamo). Key features delivered: - Dynamo platform upgrade to .NET 7 with packaging updates to add .NET 10 support and broaden framework compatibility (including .NET 8 in packaging). This enables future-proof deployments, improved runtime performance, and better cross-version compatibility. - DesignScript string escaping improvement: replaced generic CodeDomProvider-based escaping with a DS-specific ToLiteral escaper, improving string literal handling and parser compatibility; includes added unit tests for regression safety. Major bugs fixed: - Integer overflow test correction: updated tests to validate overflow behavior against long.MaxValue for mathFloor and mathCeiling nodes, ensuring accurate overflow handling validation. - Resource path length fix for GeometryUIWpf: resolved Windows path length issues by renaming resources to shorter, hash-based names; added new CI tests and logging to verify path changes. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Strengthened product reliability and performance through platform modernization and robust tests, reducing deployment risk and CI failures. - Improved code quality and maintainability with DS-specific escaping, better overflow validation, and CI-visible resource-path fixes. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - .NET platform modernization (NET 7, packaging for .NET 10 and 8 compatibility), NuGet updates - DesignScript language enhancements and test-driven development - Testing and QA discipline: unit tests for escaping and overflow, CI-focused logging - Build/CI hygiene: resource renaming strategy to mitigate path length issues
