.net core 1.0 visual studio referencing external dll : <p>with the release of the .net core i have been trying to build a simple project, however whenever i try and add a dll reference in my project i get the following message </p>

<p>"<em>.Net Core Projects only support Referencing .Net Framework assemblies in this release To Reference other assemblies they need to be included in nuget package and reference that package</em>"</p>

<p>i was getting this message in RC2 but not in RC1, is anyone else having this issue and does anyone know how to resolve it? i have not been able to find anything relating to this other than a git issue ticket <a href="https://github.com/aspnet/Home/issues/1612">https://github.com/aspnet/Home/issues/1612</a></p>
