Whovian9369	Hi, me again. Sorry A friend is trying to use AoT with his app, and I can't figure out for the life of me how to have `selfContained = false;` (which he insists has to be `false`) and use the AoT at the same time due to the following. Any thoughts? `... @nix { "action": "setPhase", "phase": "installPhase" } Executing dotnetInstallHook /build/nuget.yzA66y/fallback/microsoft.dotnet.ilcompiler/9.0.7/build/Microsoft.NETCore.Native.Publish.targets(56,5): error : PublishTrimmed is implied by native compilation and cannot be disabled. [/build/gx7q6dmvpva0fphxrx9dkj7yyyx1yl43-source/GrindCore.PerfTest.csproj]` Anyone have any suggestions on what to do next?	17:18:25
Emma [it/its]	i thought nativeaot and multi-file were mutually exclusive?	17:19:34
Whovian9369	Can't say I kno	17:19:56
Whovian9369	* Can't say I know	17:19:58
6pak	nativeaot has to be self-contained, yeah	17:20:22
6pak	ready2run is a form of aot, but that's not nativeaot	17:20:55
Whovian9369	My friend seems to think that AoT (I'm assuming nativeaot) can be enabled while `selfContained = false;` is set (seemingly to not need the runtime at all?), but the above error seems to claim otherwise.	17:29:43
Whovian9369	Admittedly I'm not quite sure what I'm asking, since the build works fine with `dotnetInstallFlags = [ "-p:PublishAot=false" ]; selfContainedBuild = false;` but not with `... [ "-p:PublishAot=true" ]; selfContainedBuild = false;` which is what my friend seems to want me to try.	17:32:47
Whovian9369	If they're mutually exclusive on the Dotnet side then that's completely fine, I will just have to make sure he's aware of that fact. 😅	17:33:36
Whovian9369	Or this is a huge misunderstanding on my part with the dev, ugh 😓 Oh well, I'll figure it out eventually. Thanks for the thoughts Emma and 6pak!	17:41:12
Whovian9369	Okay, sorry, I think I've figured out the situation again and I was slightly wrong. He wants me to try building with AoT (again seemingly NativeAoT) enabled and self-contained disabled, which seems reasonable Trying to do so throws an error, seemingly due to Emma's point about them being mutually exclusive. Friend seems to insist that I can do AoT and `--no-self-contained` (via `selfContainedBuild = false;`) even though it appears to me that I cannot due to `PublishTrimmed`	17:55:28

6pak	Download image.png	17:56:11
6pak	buildDotnetModule is adding the `PublishTrimmed=false`	17:56:20
6pak	I assume publishaot simply overrides `--no-self-contained` when using dotnet cli normally	17:56:40
Whovian9369	That's my assumption too, yeah.	18:02:55
Whovian9369	Is there a good way to print the used flags used during a build? I feel like that might help expose what's being done "incorrectly"...	18:07:28
Whovian9369	In the mean time, I'm testing `"-p:PublishTrimmed=true"` as a `dotnetInstallFlags` option to see what happens.	18:09:57
Whovian9369	... The answer is seemingly nothing due to the hook seemingly overriding it.	18:10:24
6pak	why would you want to disable `selfContainedBuild` on nix side?	18:11:08
Whovian9369	You mean explicitly settings `selfContainedBuild = false;`? Honestly I think it's personal preference so I know exactly what's set where I can set stuff. I believe Nix does set it automatically anyway, so 🤷	18:21:06

6pak	I mean not setting it to true	18:22:16
Whovian9369	Sorry, I'm afraid I'm missing the question then. You're asking why I'm setting `selfContainedBuild = false;` in the first place?	18:22:51
6pak	yeah	18:23:13
Whovian9369	I mean, as I said I think it's just personal opinion. I don't remember why I started doing it other than "Nix seems to automatically set this to false", but it might just be that I've seen it in Nixpkgs one time and preferred how it was laid out versus the output of `selfContainedBuild = true;` on "normal" (non-AoT) builds that I've done.	18:26:12
Whovian9369	It seems that Nix defaults to `selfContainedBuild = false;` anyway, but I like having the feeling of extra control or knowledge that for me comes from having that option immediately exposed (especially for testing like this, where having it as `false` seems to show errors due to AoT wanting `PublishTrimmed` set to `true`, which is disabled by default by a hook as you pointed out).	18:36:21

oatmealraisin	I have a project with a long tree of projectReferences, and I've got (most) building. I'm changing them to `packNupkg=true`, but I'm running into a common error between some of them: `error NU5026: The file '/build/flake-build/src/Shared/bin/Release/net8.0/Shared.dll' to be packed was not found on disk. [/build/flake-build/src/Shared/Shared.csproj]`	19:01:03
oatmealraisin	(Shared.csproj is the currently building project)	19:01:15
oatmealraisin	Any ideas why this might be happening?	19:01:24
