Replacement for Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.MSBuild.MSBuildWorkspace? #17974
Comments
From @srivatsn on January 30, 2017 17:28 Yes MSBuildWorkspace should work for these projects. Now I know @mattwar was looking into MSBuildWorkspace being broken due to MSBuild moving elsewhere. Matt, does MSBuildWorkspace work with MSBuild 15 (which is needed for it to understand .NET core projects). |
From @mattwar on January 30, 2017 19:0 Msbuild should work in RC3. Though you'll need to upgrade the app's redirects to include the newest msbuild's redirects found in msbuild.exe.config. |
From @josephwoodward on February 23, 2017 0:27 Does MSBuildWorkspace support the .NET Standard? IE, can it be used for loading .NET Core projects on Mac and Linux? |
From @mattwar on February 23, 2017 0:30 MSBuildWorkspace only supports desktop clr currently. |
From @josephwoodward on February 23, 2017 1:21 Ok, thank you for the prompt reply! |
From @josephwoodward on February 23, 2017 2:51 @mattwar Do you have any suggestions as where to look or what to do for anyone that wants to load the new MsBuild .csproj proj format on Mac and Linux? |
Would love to see .NET Standard support for MSBuildWorkspace so it will be usable on a Mac or Linux. |
Regarding
you might find some info in #14206, and more explicitly, by starting from this #14206 (comment). In the end, it turned out that proposal was not really x-plat either though, but could be worth looking up again. |
I think the ideal would be to make |
And what about x-plat story? 15.x and x-plat is two separate concerns, yes? |
Any update on the x-plat story for loading csproj workspaces? |
Really interested to know this too! Is it still on the road map? |
Me too, could anyone please shared an update on this issue? In addition, I'd like to ask how people have "replaced" the absence of MSBuildWorkspace so far - I've tried https://github.com/daveaglick/Buildalyzer, but I can't use it due to package incompatibilities (downgrade with Microsoft.Win32.Primitives and similar) - see my UPDATE in the next post. Any comments is appreciated. |
@ltcmelo Feel free to open an issue in Buildalyzer if the package incompatibilities are something that could be potentially resolved upstream. |
@davkean Thanks for the hint. I'll give it a try compiling it locally and, if I don't see a reason for the incompatibility, I'll fill a report. UPDATE: I got it working with the 15.7.0 preview. |
Any progress on this? Seems it didn't make it into 15.7 which makes me a sad panda 😢 If cross-platform is what's holding this back, I'd strongly suggest ignoring non-Windows platforms for now just to get something shipped to plug this glaring absence - since most users of this package are going to be on Windows, the 80/20 rule applies. |
See also: #17968 |
@IanKemp: The new MSBuildWorkspace is in the Roslyn 2.9.0 which are not yet on NuGet. |
@DustinCampbell - is 2.9.0 available via a preview feed to give it a try? :-) |
Yes. It has been for awhile now. However, if I recall correctly, you're looking for a cross-plat version, correct? Currently, it only supports Windows. |
You are correct (I'm looking for xplat). Was quickly scanning the notification and got my hopes up! |
For anyone looking for the preview bits including Note that, because the MSBuild bits are still not available in .NET Standard/Core, your project has to target .NET Framework 4.6 or higher. |
Bah, saw this had been updated and got all excited thinking cross-platform support was finally added :( |
It's not clear from reading through this issue (forgive me if this is mentioned somewhere and I missed it) -- is .NET Standard support for MSBuildWorkspace something that's planned? |
Any updates on this? |
Any plans to enable cross-platform support? |
Definitely still interested in cross-platform support for this. I'm writing a static analysis and code exploration tool and not having this API on macOS and Linux is pretty unfortunate. Willing to help implement as well. |
It is my understanding that this should "just work" now if you use MSBuildLocator with a .NET Core SDK installed |
Oh perfect! Thanks for the clarification. |
Thanks for the link to the locator, solved my issues too! In case sometime finds this after some googling, to use MSBuildWorkspace on .net core you can follow these instructions: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/msbuild/updating-an-existing-application - essentially adding a reference to |

In migrating from VS2015 to VS2017, is Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.MSBuild.MSBuildWorkspace the intended replacement for Microsoft.DotNet.ProjectModel.Workspaces.ProjectJsonWorkspace? Or is there some other implementation of Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Workspace that we should be using?
