Unable to generate schema for type defined in .NET 5 assembly

See original GitHub issue

Hi,

I’m probably doing something stupid but I’m unable to generate avro schema using dotnet avro cli tool.

Command I’m executing: dotnet avro create -a bin/Debug/net5.0/Events.dll -t Events.AccountEvent

And error I’m getting in response: The type could not be found. You may need to provide additional assemblies.

So question is what am I doing wrong here? 😞 Thanks in advance!

Yeah, the next major release will bump it to .NET 5. I’ll also keep this open as a bug since we’d want this to fail with a better message.

Thanks for your patience on this; the 7.1.0 release later today will add net5.0 as a CLI target framework.
