Note

  • Versionless symbols are defined regardless of the version you're targeting.
  • Version-specific symbols are only defined for the version you're targeting.
  • The <framework>_OR_GREATER symbols are defined for the version you're targeting and all earlier versions. For example, if you're targeting .NET Framework 2.0, the following symbols are defined: NET20, NET20_OR_GREATER, NET11_OR_GREATER, and NET10_OR_GREATER.
  • The NETSTANDARD<x>_<y>_OR_GREATER symbols are only defined for .NET Standard targets, and not for targets that implement .NET Standard, such as .NET Core and .NET Framework.
  • These are different from the target framework monikers (TFMs) used by the MSBuild TargetFramework property and NuGet.
