Microsoft.NETCore.Native.targets was not found

I'm trying to "Compiling source to native code using the ILCompiler".

I did:

  1. dotnet new console
  2. dotnet build

  3. Changed the csproj to

    <PropertyGroup>
  <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
  <TargetFramework>netcoreapp1.0</TargetFramework>
</PropertyGroup>

<Import Project="$(MSBuildSDKsPath)\Microsoft.NET.Sdk\Sdk\Sdk.targets" />
<Import Project="$(IlcPath)\Microsoft.NETCore.Native.targets" />

    1. set IlcPath=C:\Users\Documents\Visual Studio 2017\Projects\testproject\bin\Debug\netcoreapp1.0
    2. dotnet build

Confirm that the path in the <Import> declaration is correct, and that the file exists on disk.

Build FAILED.

I used the x64 NAtive Tools Command PRompt for VS 2017

My Setup:

dotnet --info .NET Command Line Tools (2.0.0-preview2-006080)

Whats about this Microsoft.NETCore.Native.targets? It seems to be a kind of a special placeholder. How can I fix the above error?

Solution

  • IlcPath is mean to be set to the output of a build of CoreRT (C:\path_to_your\corert\bin\Product\Windows_NT.x64.Debug\packaging\publish1) and not your own app. You'll need to clone and build CoreRT for this to work.
