DataGrid not working on .Net6

[fatscally]

Describe the bug

I tried to install the DataGrid on my .Net 6.0 app and got the following error. I leave it here in the hands of the right people :)

Reproducible in sample app?

• This bug can be reproduced in the sample app.

Steps to reproduce

Create a .Net6.0 app.

Install the CommunityToolkit.WinUI.UI.Controls.DataGrid 7.1.2

The install will fail because it is not compatible with .Net 6.0

Expected behavior

I was thinking it would work seamlessly with .Net 6.0

@fatscally the min version of the toolkit currently is -windows10.0.18362, have you tried using net6.0-windows10.0.18362 instead?

Hello Michael!

I have spent the last hour or so trying every different configuration based on your suggestion.
I've tried Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.UI.Controls.DataGrid and CommunityToolkit.WinUI.UI.Controls.DataGrid.

I have played about with the Target OS version. Everything builds and runs fine until I try to use the controls:DataGrid

The Microsoft version does not install:
Package Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.UI.Controls.DataGrid 7.1.2 is not compatible with net6.0-windows10.0.18362 (.NETCoreApp,Version=v6.0). Package Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.UI.Controls.DataGrid 7.1.2 supports: uap10.0.17763 (UAP,Version=v10.0.17763

And if I change it to 10.0.17763 it will not install.

Package Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.UI.Controls.DataGrid 7.1.2 is not compatible with net6.0-windows10.0.17763 (.NETCoreApp,Version=v6.0). Package Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.UI.Controls.DataGrid 7.1.2 supports: uap10.0.17763 (UAP,Version=v10.0.17763)

I am wondering do I need to download and compile the source locally? It's not something I've done before. I'm more of a plain old business app developer.

Seems to me it's not working anywhere!...

I opened VS2022 17.1.4
Created new WPF Application. Framework .Net5.0 (current)
Right click on project and select Properties.
Target OS version: 10.0.17763.0

Open Nuget manager.

1. Try install Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.UI.Controls.DataGrid Latest Stable 7.1.2
   Error:
   `Package Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.UI.Controls.DataGrid 7.1.2 is not compatible with net5.0-windows10.0.17763 (.NETCoreApp,Version=v5.0).
   Package Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.UI.Controls.DataGrid 7.1.2 supports: uap10.0.17763 (UAP,Version=v10.0.17763)

2. Try install CommunityToolkit.WinUI.UI.Controls.DataGrid

Error:

CommunityToolkit.WinUI.UI.Controls.DataGrid 7.1.2 is not compatible with net5.0-windows10.0.17763 (.NETCoreApp,Version=v5.0). 
Package CommunityToolkit.WinUI.UI.Controls.DataGrid 7.1.2 supports: net5.0-windows10.0.18362 (.NETCoreApp,Version=v5.0)	

So I change the build Target to 10.0.18362 an it will install.

I add the reference in the xaml:
xmlns:controls="clr-namespace:CommunityToolkit.WinUI.UI.Controls;assembly=CommunityToolkit.WinUI.UI.Controls.DataGrid"

<Grid>
    <controls:DataGrid x:Name="MrGridFace">
    </controls:DataGrid>
</Grid>

Now I get the errors 
A value of type 'DataGrid' cannot be added to a collection or dictionary of type 'UIElementCollection'
The specified value cannot be assigned to the collection. The following type was expected: "UIElement".

@fatscally these controls are for UWP or WinUI 3, they don't work in a WPF project directly unless you use XAML Islands.

You can read more about WinUI 3 here and more about using the Toolkit with WinUI 3 here.

[fatscally]

Yup! That explains it. I had my suspicions. I haven't gone down the WinUI rabbit hole yet.
Right so let's delete this "bug"! :)
