I am not sure if it is possible but I want to change dnx version when dnx . run from Visual Studio Code.
Even if my current dnx version is 1.0.0-beta5-11682 coreclr Visual Studio Code runs with 1.0.0-beta4 mono
Is it possible to change default dnx version of Visual Studio Code?
dnvm use VERSION -p
where -p is persistent, you can use without it to set version just for the current session.
example
dnvm use 1.0.0-beta4
or
dnvm use 1.0.0-beta4 -p
dnvm use <runtime_version> -r <runtime> -a <architecture> -p
examples:
<runtime_version>
: 1.0.0-rc1-update2
etc.
<runtime>
: mono
, clr
, coreclr
(optional)
<architecture>
: x64
, x86
(optional)
-p
: makes the results persistent (optional)
Selecting Active:
You have to provide the Runtime version as well, if there are multiple choices for the same name. For example type the following:
dnvm use 1.0.0-beta4 -r mono
If you would have to provide Architecture as well, the following command would apply:
dnvm use 1.0.0-beta4 -r mono -arch <architecture>
where can be "x64" for example, without the quotes.
Setting Default:
dnvm alias default 1.0.0-beta5-11682 -r coreclr -arch x64
Please note that, there were a bug (about May, 2015), in which referring to a CoreClr runtime by alias was not working. I don't know if it's fixed yet, but I guess so. Source: Issue 175 about the bug.
You can either set a version in the global.json
file (like so https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-roslyn/blob/master/global.json#L4) or use the combination of dnvm alias
and dnvm use
. OmniSharp (the C# brain used by VSCode) will first check the global.json
file and then go with the default-alias. All the details can be found here: https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-roslyn/blob/master/src/OmniSharp/AspNet5/AspNet5Paths.cs#L45
