libnethost.lib in shared directory #35616
Description
The static library version of nethost.dll is located in the shared/ directory with coreclr.dll. This was discovered in the nightly build and shouldn't be there. For example:
shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App\5.0.0-preview.5.20228.12\libnethost.lib
The macOS and linux archives weren't checked.

@VSadov @vitek-karas This seems to no longer be shipped in
shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App- yay, but is now no longer shipped at all - boo. This is breaking tools like https://github.com/AaronRobinsonMSFT/DNNE that rely on the static lib of nethost -libnethost.lib.I verified this on the nightly build on Windows -
5.0.0-preview.7.20313.3.AaronRobinsonMSFT commentedon Jul 8, 2020
@jkoritzinsky This is an issue I hope some of your work on setup will address.

I have checked
shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App\5.0.0-rc.1.20404.16andlibnethost.libis there. As I understand this is undesirable.Where should it be though?
I do not have enough context to figure that from the issue description.

It is superfluous in this location - it is never used. The
libnethost.liblibraries are deployed in the apphost package and have no purpose in the actualMicrosoft.NETCore.Applocation.VSadov commentedon Aug 13, 2020
