Can i open a core 2.0 project in Visual Studio 2017?

I've installed the latest dotnet-core (2.0.0-preview2-005840) and created a core 2.0 console-app.

mkdir dn2cli
cd dn2cli
dotnet new console
dotnet restore
  • Open console.csproj in Visual Studio 2017 with "open project"
  • Clean and Build Solutions
  • i get several erros
    • amongs others:

Unable to resolve 'Microsoft.NETCore.App (>= 2.0.0)' for '.NETCoreApp,Version=v2.0'.

So. Is it just not supported at the moment or am i missing something? 

c:\Temp>dotnet --info 
.NET Command Line Tools (2.0.0-preview2-005840)

Update:

There is now a VS 2017 15.3 preview that resolves this issue. Starting with VS 15.3, Visual Studio carries an MSBuild SDK resolver that determines which version of the CLI SDK a project would use (e.g. if a global.json sets the version) and uses it's MSBuild targets so new previews are picked up by VS.

Original:

You can modify your environment to get VS 2017 support for the unreleased 2.0 tooling by setting the MSBuildSdksPath as described in https://github.com/aspnet/Announcements/issues/231 so that VS picks up the build logic from the CLI.

  • Works perfect. Your path may vary eg: "C:\Program Files (x86)\dotnet\sdk\2.0.0-previewX-00xxxx\Sdks" – juwens Apr 27 '17 at 17:58

The Visual Studio .NET Core tools were just released in March, yet the 2.0 preview you are using was released in April. https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dotnet/2017/03/07/announcing-net-core-tools-1-0/ You'll need to wait for an update to the .NET Core Tools before you can use Visual Studio with .NET Core 2.0

  • I'm still experiencing the same problem under Windows-10: my VS-2017-3.5.3 cannot create any new project targeted for.`net-sdk-2.0.0`, only `1.x.x` versions. – ankostis Sep 22 '17 at 09:14
  • Do you installed https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/core? net-sdk2 isn't shipped with vs 2017.3.When you right click properties of project, do you see netstandard2? – M.Hassan Sep 22 '17 at 11:31
  • If you installed ns2 from https://www.microsoft.com/net/core, it didn't show in visual studio 2017.3, but if you installed from https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/core it showed in visual studio. ref:https://github.com/dotnet/core/issues/961 – M.Hassan Sep 22 '17 at 18:49

Landed on this today (April 2019) and it appears that now there is a version of .NET Core Tools SDK for VS 2017. Here's how you get to it: 1. browse to http://dot.net 2. Under .NET Core 2.2, look for "Download .NET Core SDK (Compatible with Visual Studio 2017" 3. Visual studio 2017 (I have version 15.9.11) should now list .NET Core 2.2 as a target framework
