Invalid path breaks Linux build when adding Facil package

After adding Facil to a new net5.0 console application on Linux, dotnet build fails, because the Facil.Generator.dll can not be found.

After manual checking I can confirm, that the search path seems correct, but the FacilGenerate.targets file contains an invalid path separator. Changing the file manually allows the build to succeed.

I’ve not tested on Windows, but I assume, using a slash “/” instead of backslash “\” will work there too. So I suggest replacing the backslash in Facil.Package/FacilGenerate.targets with a slash (like already used in Facil.Generator/FacilGenerate.targets).

Thank you very much.

v1.3.1 is in the pipeline now and will be published shortly.

Thank you for a short and concise problem description and solution suggestion. That made it a lot easier to fix this in a timely manner!

Seems it works fine on Windows. I have pushed the fix to master. Are you able to try it out before I publish it? Just build and pack the Facil.Package project (preferably in two separate steps, to work around some dotnet bugs), and you’ll get a nuget in the nupkg folder in the repo root. You can consume that in a project using a local package source as shown here. Note that if you don’t use globalPackagesFolder as shown, you have to delete the cached “unpacked” Facil version you likely have in your local NuGet cache (~/.nuget I suppose).

The target files in Facil.Package were old and unused; I didn’t know they were still around. I have deleted them now.
