.NET Core 2.0 引用Roslyn 2.3，它对应于 Visual Studio 2017 版本 15.3 并支持 C# 7.1。

Answer 2

The C# what's new version history page gives a list of all versions plus their associated Visual Studio and .NET core version:

• C# 7.3 Visual Studio 2017 version 15.7, and in the .NET Core 2.1 SDK 2.1.300 RC1
• C# 7.2 Visual Studio 2017 version 15.5, and in the .NET Core 2.0 SDK.
• C# 7.1 Visual Studio 2017 version 15.3, and in the .NET Core 2.0 SDK.
• C# 7.0 Visual Studio 2017 and .NET Core 1.0 and later

C# 8.0 is still in preview at this time (3-Jul-2019).

You can also see your SDK version with this command:
