Is there a prospective C# compiler update for the built-in C# node?

Hi, I have a new function request.
Time flies. I think the C# compiler used with the built-in C# node is already way too old compared to the latest C# compiler used with Visual Studio. I don’t know what version is the latest, but I assume technically it is possible to call a newer C# compiler from within the built-in C# node. Is this already on the to-do list or there is no release plan regarding this?

Thank you.

Hi @mikity_kogekoge,

Can you describe what problem you are trying to solve?

We are hoping to do this for Rhino 8. We need to be careful as the scripts will not work in previous versions of Rhino

Hi Dale,
I like Python’s tuple and unpacking very much. Since it seems like it is supported in the latest C#, I want to use this syntax in the C# node.

Thank you.
