Build error during preLaunchTask 'build'.

See original GitHub issue

Whenever I press F5 to debug an RC2 ASP.Net app, I get the following error in a bar along the top:

Build error has been detected during preLaunchTask 'build'.

with a ‘Debug Anyway’ and ‘Close’ option.

I encounter the issue every time.

Build outputs associated with this:

Project Project.Omega (.NETCoreApp,Version=v1.0) will be compiled because Input items removed from last build
Compiling Project.Omega for .NETCoreApp,Version=v1.0
Compilation succeeded.
    0 Warning(s)
    0 Error(s)
Time elapsed 00:00:01.3013499

Project Project.Omega (.NETCoreApp,Version=v1.0) was previously compiled. Skipping compilation.

Debug Anyway works, but it’s a pain to have to click that every time.

Thanks @jajajames. I’m glad the extension fixed this for you. I’m closing the issue. If folks see similar symptoms then please open a new issue so we can see what’s happening on latest bits.
