Hi
I have some problems with .net version
in my .csproj file i have:
<Project ToolsVersion="12.0" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003"> <TargetFrameworkVersion>v4.5.1</TargetFrameworkVersion>

but in AppVeyor build console i have:
Microsoft (R) Build Engine version 12.0.31101.0
[Microsoft .NET Framework, version 4.0.30319.42000]
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
 
And because of this i have some problems with library which is worked only on .net 4.5 and higher
How i can set the version of .net in appveyor.yml or somewhere else?
Thank you

   Both 4.5.1, 4.5.2 (and even 4.6) are in-place updates to .NET 4.0, so it's shown as "4.0". 4.5.1 and 4.5.2 are installed on build workers. You may want to use this guide to check that: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-CA/library/hh925568(v=vs.110).aspx

   What error do you get?

   Thanks for response.
   I get specific error for library:
    error MC3074: The tag 'PieChart' does not exist in XML namespace 'clr-namespace:De.TorstenMandelkow.MetroChart;assembly=De.TorstenMandelkow.MetroChart'
   I find the source of the error: .net 4.0
   if i build this project on my pc with .net 4.0 i get this error, but when i build with .net 4.5 i don't have this error.
   I know that 4.5.1 and 4.5.2 are installed on AppVeyor build workers, but "4.0" in console baffled me.
   Thanks for answer, maybe i'll find another source of the problem :)
