.NET Framework Targeting Pack Nuget Packages

These packages enable building .NET Framework projects on any machine with at least MSBuild or the .NET Core SDK installed.

The following scenarios and benefits are enabled for .NET Framework projects:

Build without requiring admin operations to install pre-requisites such as Visual Studio or .NET Framework targeting packs.
Build libraries on any operating system supported by the .NET Core SDK.
Build Mono-based projects.

Usage

.NET Core project

This sample uses a multi-targeting ClassLibrary project, that can be created using dotnet new classlib.

Change TargetFramework property to TargetFrameworks and add a new .NET Framework target, like in the following example:

<TargetFrameworks>netstandard2.0;net472</TargetFrameworks>

Add Package reference:

<ItemGroup>
  <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.NETFramework.ReferenceAssemblies" Version="1.0.0" PrivateAssets="All" />
</ItemGroup>

Build as usual:

dotnet build

SDK-style project

Add the TargetFramework property and a PackageReference like in the following example csproj file:

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>net472</TargetFramework>
  </PropertyGroup>
  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.NETFramework.ReferenceAssemblies" Version="1.0.0" PrivateAssets="All" />
  </ItemGroup>

</Project>

Classic-style project

Add PackageReference to your csproj file, the same way as in the SDK-style sample above.
Add or modify the TargetFrameworkVersion property in your csproj file:

<TargetFrameworkVersion>v4.7.2</TargetFrameworkVersion>

Building your .NET Framework (SDK and Classic) project

Restore NuGet packages:

msbuild /t:restore

Build the project:

msbuild
