Can't build it

[rbasniak]

Hi, I would like to try your code, but I couldn't buit it. I'm getting the following errors when I run publish.cmd on Windows. It's asking for a solution file. I think it's because MS recently changed the framework to work without the json file. Have you tried running this code recently?

>publish

>rmdir /s /q out
The system cannot find the file specified.

>ren project.json project.json.bak

>copy "build_jsons\project.windows.json" "project.json"
        1 file(s) copied.

>dotnet restore

Hey @rbasniak Please check out the comments on #2 I'll keep this issue open as it should be fixed though, I should have some spare time this weekend to clean up the project and make it work with csproj instead.

[rbasniak]

@CameronAavik Thank you for the prompt response. I'll try to fix and run it with the information on #2. Your approach for using OpenGL with .NET Core is very cool, thanks for sharing.

~~I know its not related to this issue, but if anyone else is having trouble building on linux with msbuild this due to the error '...dotnetcore-graphics-example/obj/project.assets.json' not found. Run a NuGet package restore to generate this file., I have found that running the dotnet restore command resolves this~~

just kidding this is literally in the readme for the msbuild-loadlibrary-test branch that I ironically did not read
