This diagnostic warning is reported when using experimental .NET tool resource APIs in Aspire, including:

  • DotnetToolResource

The following code generates ASPIREDOTNETTOOL:

var builder = DistributedApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
var tool = builder.AddDotnetTool("my-tool", "dotnet-tool-package");

Suppress the warning with either of the following methods:

  • Set the severity of the rule in the .editorconfig file.

    .editorconfig
    [*.{cs,vb}]
    dotnet_diagnostic.ASPIREDOTNETTOOL.severity = none

    For more information about editor config files, see Configuration files for code analysis rules.

  • Add the following PropertyGroup to your project file:

    C# project file
