Support for .NET 6

[danatcofo]

• NET 6 Support
• Target a specific project in the electronize build/start command using /dotnet-project <projectName>.csproj

NOTE: the .NET6 runtime has targeted System.Drawing.Common at windows architectures and will cause warnings. This should be addressed at some time.

appveyor is failing on net6 not being supported... looking into that.

[danatcofo]

Updated the appveyor to run a dedicated script appveyor.cmd and removed the 'custom' runs on that script due to lack of support for win7/single file build on the Visual Studio 2022 image.

Does anyone know if this can the merged into main?

I have this and most of the other PRs merged in a fork branch. Working fine for me there.

The next big update is coming soon!

I tried out a local build of the source branch for this PR and noticed a quirk:

If I specify a aspCoreBackendPort in my manifest, I am unable to connect to the ASP.NET Core server. electronize start logs Now listening on: http://localhost:<myport>, but navigating to that URL gives a 404.

Interestingly, if I start with electronize start /watch, I am navigate to http://localhost:<myport> and get properly redirected to my SpaProxyServerUrl.

I wonder if this is related: dotnet/aspnetcore#38185

Actually I was wrong 😄. At the same time I added the custom port, I removed

app.UseSpa(spa => ...);

from my program.cs, thinking it was un-needed with the new .csproj SPA settings. Guess I was wrong!

Yah I didn't implement that functionality into the change set. I haven't even figured out or researched how to do that yet.
