PR microsoft/aspire#16811 introduces a new opt-in MSBuild property
AspireUseCliBundle=truethat allows C# SDK-style AppHost projects to source DCP and the Aspire Dashboard from the Aspire CLI bundle rather than from the platform-specificAspire.Hosting.Orchestration.*andAspire.Dashboard.Sdk.*NuGet packages. This is a user-facing behavior change for AppHost authors who want to decouple their projects from NuGet-distributed orchestration binaries.The existing
Advanced orchestration propertiessection inapp-host/configuration.mdxalready documentedDcpCliPath, making it the natural home for the newAspireUseCliBundle,AspireCliBundlePath, andAspireCliPathproperties.What was changed
