Exclude feature doesn't work when using PackageReferences and .NetStandard

[JKennedy24]

I am trying to use the Exclude feature outlined here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/consume-packages/dependency-resolution#excluding-references

I have a .Net standard 1.4 library and a UWP project.

I have added a nuget package to my UWP project using the PackageReference technique and added the Exclude="All" flag to my packagereference but the libraries are still included and causing a build conflict.

The following Package reference format does not work:

<PackageReference Include="PackageC" Version="1.0.0" Exclude="All" />

use ExcludeAssets instead of Exclude

As @rohit21agrawal pointed out. There's a mistake in the docs.

I've already filed a PR to get that fixed.
NuGet/docs.microsoft.com-nuget#641

The correct usage is shown here:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/consume-packages/package-references-in-project-files#controlling-dependency-assets

Apologies for the inconvenience again.

Thanks.

Using ExcludeAssets worked. Hopefully get that PR merged soon
