⚠️ This release is here for completeness because it was actually pushed to nuget.org, but version 4.6.0 will likely never happen and has been pulled from nuget.org. The aim was to support Pact Specification v4 but we realised afterwards that proper ergonomic support would require breaking API changes, and thus version 5.0 is the version to use instead. This version has incomplete v4 support.

Please Note: OSX ARM64 support has been merged but is still considered alpha. We are currently unable to run CI on OSX/ARM64 on GitHub Actions runners and so can't automatically verify the integrity of each release. Those that have tried PactNet locally on M1/M2 Macs have reported no issues, but until CI support is available this platform is considered unsupported.

What's Changed

• refactor: Move to new FFI combined interaction model by @adamrodger in https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-net/pull/414

API Changes

The following APIs have been marked as obsolete, but are retained for backwards compatibility until PactNet 5.0.0:

IMessagePact
IMessagePactV3
MessagePact.V3(string, string)
MessagePact.V3(string. string, PactConfig)
IPactV2.UsingNativeBackend()
IPactV3.UsingNativeBackend()
IMessagePactV3.UsingNativeBackend()

Instead, Pact and MessagePact have been combined so that only Pact is needed. A method determines which type of interactions are being defined, from either WithHttpInteractions for standard HTTP request/response or WithMessageInteractions for message pacts. The older APIs are retained but internally they just call the new API.

See the samples or docs for further details.
