Trim unused assemblies not working for self contained app and published self contained App still asking for framework
Hi!
I've developed a small console application with Rider which i wanted to be self contained and a single file.
This is my publish configuraton for the said application:

Hower as soon as I hit publish, the following error occurs:
NETSDK1102: Optimizing assemblies for size is not supported for the selected publish configuration. Please ensure that you are publishing a self-contained appAlso, if I disabled the trim unused assemblies option, the deployment works and gives me a single file, as expected.
And as far as I know, the self contained app should also include the framework, but once i start my console app, i get the following message:

Would be great if anyone could tell me, whats wrong here.
Thanks!

Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, it looks like you have faced a known issue:
RIDER-102217 .NET 8 project is always published as Framework-Dependent.
The fix will be release in 2023.3.2, you can click `Watch` to monitor the status.
Please consider using dotnet CLI to publish the project to work around the issue.
Thanks for the info!
