Output paths (redux)

Console app

Foo/project.json

    "compilationOptions": {
        "emitEntryPoint": true
    },
    "dependencies": {

        "PackageDependency": "1.0.0-*"
    },
    "frameworks": {
        "dnxcore50":{ }
    }
}

Build output

Command:

dotnet build

Compile assets

bin/Debug/dnxcore50/win7-x64/ProjectDependency.pdb

Publish output

Command:

dotnet publish

Do we publish to the same place as build? They can stomp on each other if we do. If we change the folder it should be under bin so that .gitignore files don't need to be updated.

bin/Debug/dnxcore50/win7-x64/Foo
bin/Debug/dnxcore50/win7-x64/Foo.deps
bin/Debug/dnxcore50/win7-x64/Foo.dll

bin/Debug/dnxcore50/win7-x64/ProjectDependency.pdb
bin/Debug/dnxcore50/win7-x64/PackageDependency.dll

Pack output

Command:

dotnet pack

Dependencies end up in the nuspec of the package.

bin/Debug/Foo.nupkg
bin/Debug/Foo.symbols.nupkg
bin/Debug/dnxcore50/Foo.dll
bin/Debug/dnxcore50/Foo.pdb

TFM-RID-Args.md

Handling of TFM and Runtime args

Behavior:

Default runtime: x64 Default framework: dnxcore50/netstandardapp

• If no runtime and framework specified and a single framework exists, then use it.
• If no runtime and framework specified then use the default framework and runtime id If it's not in project.json then fail.
