Ptvs: CoreCompile does not exists in the project

[cpoyraz]

When I try to build the python project containing only one file "test.py" with single line code(I know the error is not about that), I get this error "CoreCompile does not exists in the project". What may cause of that?

[cpoyraz]

it is fixed after uncommenting CoreCompile tag in project file.

Hello cpoyraz, I am facing the same problem I have developed a Python project/solution is VS 2017. Where exactly did you find the CoreCompile tag and in which project file? Thanks (:

@it21208 You will have created a file with the extension .pyproj at some point - open that in a plain text (or XML) editor and you'll find it near the end of the file.
