为ASP.NET Core和MVC 5应用程序构建一个简单的类库

Question

I want to build a simple C# Class Library that can be referenced from both ASP.NET Core 1.1 MVC and MVC 5 web applications. By simple I mean that the library just contains some enums and some string constants , ie no additional dependencies.

I have tried building the library as a .NET Core Class Library, but it seems this cannot be referenced by MVC 5 applications and vice versa. Currently, all components (class library and web applications) are running in the same solution.

Is there a way of achieving this?

Thanks.

You want a .NET Standard class library. Be sure to pick a version of the .NET standard that both .net core and full framework supports (1.5 works for 4.6.2 and net core)

See matrix in this article for full compatibilities:
