Add new library manual draft and samples #110
Conversation
Adding a draft for a component of the .NET Core library manual with corresponding buildable samples. Because the original document was written in Markdown, it's in Markdwon right now. It will be converted to reStructuredText in another commit.

Do we want to add something about prerequisites, such as what you will need to install before following the instructions in this document, even if it's just a pointer to another document?

Yes, good catch. Adding that at the top.

Succinct, up-to-date, and not confusing :) Nice! |

| ## How do I target both .NET Core and .NET Framework? | ||

| You may need a library to work on .NET Core *and* .NET Framework 4.0 or older. You may also need to use specific libraries available in .NET 4.5 which are unavailble in .NET Core (such as `SYSTEM.FIXME.SOON`). For these scenarios, you will need to specifically target the versions of .NET Framework you support. |

typo: "unavailble" should be unavailable

Addressed feedback pieces aside from talking about how to test things. I have questions myself about what's needed to be able to compile and test different platforms effectively, particularly when those platforms aren't compatible with the same version of Xunit. Edit: and how to create the NuGet package from the command line so that it's a "release" package and not just something that exists in the |
|
As of right now, the project that uses Xunit to test is failing on the rc1-final bits. See this issue for Xunit. |
|
Feedback from the Xunit issue: Xunit test runner needs to use an RC version to be compatible with the final RC1 bits for DNX. Workaround for testing: FYI: xunit/xunit#677 (comment) These instructions should change once we ship rc1-final. We should be able to pull directly from NuGet once that happens. |
|
Updated the text to have instructions for running tests cross-platform. Updated the sample project to use the correct packges as well. |

Open issues remaining:

|
Closing out since this was created under the old TOC and under some older principles. |

NOTE: This is now out of date. Refer to #182 for the true version of this.
Adding a draft for a component of the .NET Core library manual with
corresponding buildable samples. This is for building new libraries on .NET Core, without requiring Windows or Visual Studio.
This is related to #77 and addresses one of the scenarios in #46.
