Compatibility: 3rd Party Components

CoreForms provides basic runtime support for libraries that are compiled for .NET Framework. Depending on the library you are using, this might work flawlessly or not at all.

Generally speaking there are two broad categories:

• Control libraries can work if they don't use any unsupported features and use clean exception handling (see thread-abort sematics above)
• Infrastructure-level libraries, such as authentication handlers, should probably be replaced with .NET Core versions

Telerik

We have had successfully tried Telerik UI for ASP.NET AJAX and looked through thread-abort semantics without finding any obvious issues.
