"HelloDna" Getting Started using .NET 6

[Ricardo Gerbaudo]

Dear developers,

I'm trying to follow the getting started "HelloDna" steps in the readme.txt created after running Install-Package ExcelDna.AddIn in the Nuget Package Console, but the HelloDna function is not being recognised by Excel when I run F5 to debug.

What I've done so far:

1. Created new Class Library project targeting .NET.
2. Installed ExcelDna.Addin Nuget package.
3. Changed target framework to net6.0-windows in the .CSPROJ file.
4. Created a new <PropertyGroup> with a <ExcelDnaAllowPackageReferenceProjectStyle> element, and set it to true in the .CSPROJ file.
5. Created a new debug profile (executable) and set it to the Excel installation path.
6. Created a new class with the sample C# function content.
7. Hit F5 and prayed... but I just got Excel opened, without recognising the HelloDna function.

I also noticed that no .XLL file is being generated anywhere when I build or debug the project.

Any tips on what am I missing, or where should I look for a getting started using .NET 6?

Thanks.

Hi Ricardo,

For .NET 6 you will have to install the pre-release version 1.6-rc1 of the ExcelDna.AddIn package.
