I’m upgrading a client’s Xamarin Android app to .NET 7 Android. I’m unfamiliar with Couchbase.Lite and am beginning the learning curve. The app is running an old version of Couchbase.Lite (1.4.4) along with Couchbase.Lite.Storage.SQLCipher (1.4.4) and Couchbase.Lite.SystemSQLite (1.4.4).
It looks like a hefty upgrade path to the latest version of Couchbase.Lite. Is it possible to use these older packages with .NET 7?
Couchbase Lite 1.4.4 seems to basically work with .NET 7 but I'm running into a few issues and wonder if it's caused by an incompatibility with .NET 7.
For example, after saving docs to the database, I try to retrieve them with the following query and nothing is returned.
{[Query: Database=Database[/data/user/0/com.kordata.mobile/files/sandboxtestninyoadmin.cblite2], Limit=2147483647, Skip=0, Descending=False, StartKey=null,EndKey=null, StartKeyDocId=null, EndKeyDocId=null, InclusiveStart=True, InclusiveEnd=True,IndexUpdateMode=Before, AllDocsMode=AllDocs, Keys=, MapOnly=True, GroupLevel=0, Prefetch=False,IncludeDeleted=False, PostFilter=, PrefixMatchLevel=0]}
This is probably the best answer you are going to get and it's not a great one (this product version went end of life 6 years ago). It's not likely that merely upgrading caused a data error like this. It would be well worth the effort to upgrade to a version of the library that has actual support and 6 years of improvements as well.
