This PR updates the projects in the solution to target the upcoming .NET 11 framework version, in the following manner:

  • Added .NET 11 target to the MiniExcel source projects and test projects
  • Replaced the .NET 9 target with the .NET 11 target in the benchmark project
  • Added .NET 11 as one of the dotnet versions to build and test for in github actions

Additionally, this PR also addresses a significant breaking change that .NET 11 brings regarding conversions between double and decimal:
as documented here, in .NET 11 many conversion APIs have been changed to approximate the resulting value more accurately.
Unfortunately we relied upon one of the previous less accurate conversions when mapping numeric values to decimal, so a workaround has been added to make sure no behavioral changes were introduced.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added support for running the library on .NET 11.
    • Improved decimal conversion from double values for consistent, legacy-compatible results across supported .NET versions.
    • Improved value mapping to retain numeric precision and handle culture-aware conversions more consistently.
  • Tests

    • Expanded automated test coverage to include .NET 11 for CSV, OpenXML, and shared test scenarios.
  • Chores

    • Updated benchmark targets to include .NET 10 and .NET 11.
    • Updated continuous integration workflows for .NET 11.

- Added .NET 11 target to the MiniExcel source main projects and test projects
- Replaced the .NET 9 target with the .NET 11 target in the benchmark project
- Added .NET 11 as one of the dotnet versions to build and test for in github actions
…troduced in .NET 11

In .NET 11 conversion APIs such as `new Decimal(double value)` or `Convert.ToDecimal(double value)` among others have been changed to approximate the resulting value more accurately.
Unfortunately this is a significant breaking change for us as we relied upon this truncation to discard unwanted decimal digits when mapping doubles (our default numeric type) to decimals.
Hence a workaround was added to ensure backwards compatibility was mantained.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The project now targets .NET 11 in CI, benchmarks, and tests. Numeric conversion paths add .NET 11 compatibility logic for double and decimal values.

Changes

.NET 11 support and conversion compatibility

Layer / File(s) Summary
Add .NET 11 build and test targets
.github/workflows/dotnet.yml, src/Directory.Build.props, .github/workflows/benchmark.yml, .github/workflows/codeql-analysis.yml, benchmarks/..., tests/...
CI, benchmarks, and test projects add .NET 11 targeting. The language version changes to preview.
Preserve decimal conversion behavior
src/MiniExcel.Core/Helpers/Polyfills.cs, src/MiniExcel.Core/MiniExcelDataReaderBase.cs
A .NET 11 polyfill formats doubles with invariant-culture "G15" before decimal parsing. GetDecimal uses target-specific double conversion.
Update mapped numeric values
src/MiniExcel.Core/Reflection/MiniExcelMapper.cs
MapValue preserves double and decimal inputs, applies target-specific conversion, and uses culture-aware and invariant parsing fallbacks.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~12 minutes

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 07aa9

The change is mergeable with bounded risk, but CodeQL should build net11.0 so the newly supported target is analyzed.

Build the .NET 11 target in CodeQL.

The manual build selects net10.0, so CodeQL does not compile or analyze the net11.0 path. Use -f net11.0, or run builds for both target frameworks.
