Fornax.Core dll not reference-able using '#r "nuget:Fornax" about fornax HOT 6 CLOSED

I think the issue is we don't use --langversion:preview in FSI session hosted in Fornax - https://github.com/ionide/Fornax/blob/master/src/Fornax/Generator.fs#L31

@Krzysztof-Cieslak I don't think that is the issue because on my system with with F# 5.0 the compiler service can't resolve those references. But I'll find out if they can be referenced in a standard project in which case the bug is on the FSharp compiler side.

Oh, it may be caused by the fact Fornax is packed as a tool and referencing tool is probably not supported scenario. In such a case, we will need to release Fornax.Core as normal NuGet package.

CC: @cartermp could you confirm this suspicion?

from fornax.

Yeah, you can't reference a global tool like a normal nuget package:

So you'd need to release some kind of core library for folks to use if they want to do it that way.

Is it be possible to release Fornax.Core as a NuGet package?

In my project I am using paket to manage the dependencies thanks to its generate_load_scripts features. And Fornax.Core is the only dll I cannot manage this way.

Note: I am using paket instead of #r "nuget: ..." because #r is really slow to resolve. For me it adds 4 sec per fsx file where it is present. Because paket install the dlls locally it doesn't "really" had a overhead each time the file is being process.

@MangelMaxime https://www.nuget.org/packages/Fornax.Core/ is available now.
