I have a question about .net Core project.
I have a .Net Core Project referencing other projects.
The problem is that a few projects show the warning saying that "Package 'XXXXX' was restored using .NetFramework, Version=v4.6.1.... instead of targer framework .NetCoreApp".
What kind of problems could I have?
Also can I deploy this in Linux for instance and still working fine?
warning showed
Thanks guys
Look at this thread - For a .Net Core 2.1 project, Why does Nuget restores .Net 4.6.1 packages?
What it basically means is the package you have loaded not suitable for .NET CORE, and was restored using a different version of .Net Framework.
Check if the package exists for .NET CORE (search thru NuGet Manager)
Regarding whether it will work on Linux or not - it depends on the package dependencies (e.g. if it is depending on WinForm for example, it probably won't work on Linux).
Even if it will work, I suggest finding a package suitable for .NET CORE.

I'm trying to change ASP.NET Core web application with .NET Framework as a target framework to use .NET Core 3.1.X
I try changing the target framework in the project file (.csproj), I encounter dependency issues, dependency conflict....
Is there any straightforward method to solve this issue?
Before you start your migration, you should know there’s several difference between .net framework and .net core, so please follow the official document to do some Pre-Migration steps.
Then you can follow this official document to migrate your application from framework to .net core 3.1.
Since your ideal .net core version is 3.1, still I suggest you can try to use .net 6. Also, you can use this upgrade tool to reach your goal. In fact, using this upgrade assistant is a batter choice than you doing it by yourself. Even if you are insisting using .net core 3.1, you can use this assistant to upgrade your version to 6 first then change it to 3.1.
Note:
Before you start your migration, please make a backup of your original project. That's because some packages in .net framework may be no longer available in .net core. So if there're some errors occur, you can go back to the original one.
Can anyone help as to how to use the run time binaries found in the link below?

Basically, we are moving to .NET Core (we have been using .NET framework 4.0 for many years - so big shift as you can guess). I am kind of nervous to install .NET core on the production server (Windows Server 2012). Is it safe to install .NET Core on a server running .NET framework 4.0? If no, is there any way I can get the .NET Core runtime on to the server without installing them (kind of copying portal libraries) so that I can start with the beta testing of the app. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
EDIT:
It is not duplicate, One of the main questions I had if I can use portable binaries on the server to run my app, without actually installing them (got the answer below, thanks again). Not sure someone down voted this without any reason. It makes the developers nervous to ask a question in StackOverflow. if they can mention the reason that would be great!
There are no issues when installing .NET Core and .NET Framework on the same machine. They are designed to allow them to be installed side-by-side.
However you do need to install the .NET Core runtime onto the server to allow the code to be run because the OS has native dependencies that need to be present. See this link for more information.
With .NET Core you can do framework dependent deployments (FDD) and self-contained deployments (SCD). FDD requires any shared assemblies to be present on the server i.e. System.* assemblies etc. but an SCD only requires the basic runtime/native dependencies. For an SCD your app deployment would include any .NET Core shared assemblies in it's deployment package.
You can read more about FDD and SCD here
Also there is more information about the native dependencies on different OS platforms here
I am trying to build a .NET Core application. For this purpose I create a new MVC project from the template ASP.NET Core Web Application (.NET Core).
Once I do this, I inevitably need to install some NuGet packages, and see that there are 26 updates available for my project. So I hit "update all" and get into a big mess. One was having to manually edit the project.json to make the .NETCore.App an object with {"version":"2.0.0","type":"platform"}. Now in the project.json most of the stuff is at version 2.0.0 but I get all these error messages in the Error List, and all of them say pretty much the same thing: The dependency Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.Cookies 2.0.0 does not support framework .NETCoreApp,Version=v1.0
What is my missing step?
Answer came in form of comment:
VS2015 is no longer supported for .Net Core projects. You need to upgrade and migrate your project.json to .csproj too. – DavidG
I want my ASP.NET Core Web API to run as a self-contained exe within the .NET framework and not .NET Core Framework. Is that possible? Thanks!
EDIT:
If I add "net451": {} to my frameworks section in project.json,
I get the following exception:
Failed to make the following project runnable: myProject (.NETCoreApp,Version=v1.0) reason: Expected coreclr library not found in package graph. Please try running dotnet restore again.
You can't create a self-contained app which targets .NET Framework >=4.5, because the full .NET Framework isn't modular and its not possible to have more than one version of it installed. Newer versions basically always replace the previous one.
Self-contained apps were one main motivation for .NET Core (together with portability)
You ALWAYS have to install .NET >=4.5 before your app can run. self-contained apps only work with .NET Core because .NET core libraries can be pulled through nuget package.
For .NET 4.6 you can only create portable apps, which is the default mode.
I started programming with .NET Core and ASP.NET Core and after reading many Docs/Tutorials i still am not sure of how to realize if a Nuget-(Meta-)Package is comptabile/usable within my .NET-Core-App.
How to check if a NuGet-Package is compatible with .NET Core.
E.g. the often recited Newtonsoft JSON. Is it compatible/usable - and how to see this?
Is there a list of all the available .NET Core packages?
(Like here it lists a few
key NuGet packages for .NET Core
). But since they say those are "key" packages i would assume there are more. But which?
The best way to understand compatibility is table here
In this table you can check what API version support NuGet package. If it is standard 1.0+ - it works with .Net Core
For checking (supported API version) dependencies on your package, you can check page of package on nuget.org or in your package manager
Here is an example for Rider
maybe that will be helpful - lots of popular packages https://github.com/thangchung/awesome-dotnet-core
I also don't see nuget.org mentioned anywhere so:
https://nuget.org
General rule of thumb for me is:
if package has a dependency on net standard or .net core, it will run with .net core(mind the versions also)
https://packagesearch.azurewebsites.net
Go to site and search for package to find its compatibility
Well, in fact you don't have to worry, the NET core application will indicate you if the package is compatible or not when you will run a dotnet restore command in your project.
Let say that you have the famous CSVHelper package registered in your csproj file :
<PackageReference Include="CsvHelper" Version="0.12.0"/>
Then, when you'll run any dotnet command such as build or run, you'll have the following input in the console in case of, here, cross-compatibility:
YourProjet/aspnetapp.csproj : warning NU1701: Package 'CsvHelper 0.12.0' was restored using '.NETFramework,Version=v4.6.1, .NETFramework,Version=v4.6.2, .NETFramework,Version=v4.7, .NETFramework,Version=v4.7.1, .NETFramework,Version=v4.7.2, .NETFramework,Version=v4.8' instead of the project target framework '.NETCoreApp,Version=v2.2'. This package may not be fully compatible with your project.
Basically, it mean that NET Core application can use ASP.NET NuGet package, and so far, I've never cross on a non-compatible package. Even if version is incorrect, the build will get the most recent matching version of the NuGet package.
Hoped it answer your question.
