• Debug information for typedefs of unnamed enums compiled with the C compiler is now restored.
• The spectre-mitigated x86 version of delayimp.lib is now built with /Qspectre mitigations enabled.
• Changes were made to how Asset Catalogs in Xamarin.iOS projects are loaded in order to reduce solution load time.
• We have updated Xamarin.Forms templates to use the latest version.
• We have fixed an issue with ASP.NET Core Web Applications being debugged through Kestrel that would show the error message "Unable to configure HTTPS endpoint. No server certificate was specified...".
