The MonoAOTCompiler
MSBuild task is also useful outside the context of dotnet/runtime
. The task is made available through a NuGet Package containing the MonoAOTCompiler.dll
assembly produced from building MonoAOTCompiler.csproj
. To use the task in a project, reference the NuGet package, with the appropriate nuget source.
