KiteConnect .Net Client v5.0.0 Released

Hi everyone,

We've released v5.0.0 of the official .Net client library for Kite Connect API. This is a major update with breaking changes.

What's new

● .NET 10 target — The library now targets net10.0 as the previous net6.0 target reached end-of-life.
● Decimal quantities — All quantity fields are now decimal for consistency and to avoid floating point calculation errors.
● Reorganized constants — Constants are now organized into sub classes for better discoverability.
● Market protection for orders for MARKET and SL-M order types.

New constants

Constants have moved from flat names to nested classes. For example:

● Constants.EXCHANGE_NSE → Constants.Exchange.NSE
● Constants.TRANSACTION_TYPE_BUY → Constants.Transaction.Buy
● Constants.ORDER_TYPE_LIMIT → Constants.OrderType.Limit
● Constants.PRODUCT_MIS → Constants.Product.MIS
● Constants.VALIDITY_TTL → Constants.Validity.TTL
● Constants.MODE_FULL → Constants.TickerMode.Full

Install / Update
