GroupDocs.Metadata for .NET 24.4 Release Notes

Major Features

Important Note: Starting from 24.4.0, the GroupDocs.Metadata package has been split into two distinct platform packages: .NET Standard and .NET Framework. The GroupDocs.Metadata package is specifically designed to support the .NET Standard platform, making it compatible with .NET Core, .NET 5, .NET 6, etc. It includes backward compatibility improvements, allowing it to function with .NET Framework versions starting from 4.7.2. In addition, we have introduced the GroupDocs.Metadata.NETFramework package, which is optimized to run seamlessly in the .NET Framework runtime.

There are the following features, enhancements, and fixes in this release:

• Import metadata properties from JSON file.
