// Guide to making breaking behavior changes in MVC:
//
// Hello, if you're reading this, you're probably trying to make a change in behavior in MVC in a minor
// version. Every change in behavior is a breaking change to someone, even if a feature was buggy or
// broken in some scenarios.
//
// To help make things easier for current users, we don't automatically opt users into breaking changes when
// they upgrade applications to a new minor version of ASP.NET Core. It's a separate choice to opt in to new
// behaviors in a minor release.
//
// To make things better for future users, we also want to provide an easy way for applications to get
// access to the new behaviors. We make changes when they are improvements, and if we're changing something
// we've already shipped, it must add value for all of our users (eventually). To this end, new applications
// created using the template are always opted in to the 'current' version.
//
// This means that all changes in behavior should be opt-in.
//
// -----
//
// Moving on from general philosophy, here's how to implement a behavior change and corresponding
// compatibility switch.
//
// Add a new property on options that uses a CompatibilitySwitch<T> as a backing field. Make sure the
// new switch is exposed by implementing IEnumerable<ICompatibilitySwitch> on the options class. Pass the
// property name to the CompatibilitySwitch constructor using nameof.
//
// Choose a boolean value or a new enum type as the 'value' of the property.
//
// If the new property has a boolean value, it should be named something like `SuppressFoo`
// (if the new value deactivates some behavior) or like `AllowFoo` (if the new value enables some behavior).
// Choose a name so that the old behavior equates to 'false'.
//
// If it's an enum, make sure you initialize the compatibility switch using the
// CompatibilitySwitch(string, value) constructor to make it obvious the correct value is passed in. It's
// a good idea to equate the original behavior with the default enum value as well.
//
// Then create (or modify) a subclass of ConfigureCompatibilityOptions appropriate for your options type.
// Override the DefaultValues property and provide appropriate values based on the value of the Version
// property. If you just added this class, register it as an IPostConfigureOptions<TOptions> in DI.
