Issues that this hotfix rollup fixes
CLR JIT issue
C# structures are passed by reference, not by value, when the code is run on a computer that has the .NET Framework 4.6 installed and that uses the RyuJIT compiler. One symptom of this bug is that the code represents the data in a collection in the incorrect order (time-series). This change in behavior from earlier versions of .NET Framework triggers unexpected behavior when clients retrieve time-series data from the data historian.
This issue occurs because the lvAddrExposed flag is missing for tmp variables that serve as pass-by-ref arguments. This, in turn, corrupts the copy prop phase.
CLR issue
An issue in CLR type loader may trigger a deadlock while generic types are being restored from native images. This causes a failure in the ngen createpdb command. This hotfix resolves this issue.
Windows Forms issue
The Windows Forms PrintPreviewDialog UI is initialized very slowly when the following conditions are true:
-
A network printer is used.
-
User preferences for this printer, such as duplex settings, are modified.
Performance optimization has been added to this scenario. If page settings are not modified for a specific page, printer settings are not reapplied (by accessing to the printer spooler) for this page. If the application modifies printer settings by using the QueryPageSettings event handler, print preview generation performance for the affected pages will not improve even if the opt-in flag is set.
In order to opt in to this optimization, the following key should be added to the app.config file, depending on your version of .NET Framework.
.NET Framework 4.5.2:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
< appSettings >
< add key="OptimizePrintPreview" value="true" />
< /appSettings >
</configuration> .NET Framework 4.6 or a later version:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
< runtime>
< AppContextSwitchOverrides value = "Switch.System.Drawing.Printing.OptimizePrintPreview=true" />
< /runtime>
</configuration> If an application can run on either version of the .NET Framework, use both switches in the same file.
To opt out, remove the switch, or set the values to false.
ClickOnce issue
ClickOnce has been updated to support TLS 1.1 and 1.2. ClickOnce will automatically detect which TLS protocol is required at runtime. There are no extra steps required in ClickOnce to enable this functionality.
Note ClickOnce continues to support TLS 1.0 for the foreseeable future, even though it is no longer considered PCI-compliant.
