VS restart seems to be required
After upgrading WebSharper nuget packages a reboot seems to be required on Windows 11 with Visual Studio 2022

Steps to reproduce:

• dotnet new websharper-spa -lang f# -n MySPA
• This application have some issue that I will try to fix by changing WebSharper.core
• On my local WebSharper.core, I increment the version tag (I'm not sure if this is needed), make some modifications, and run the tests. When it's ok, I do a "build.cmd ws-package"
• Update nuget packages on VS Gui, then "dotnet clean, dotnet run"
• The MySpa issue persists.
• I try: dotnet ws-stop, dotnet clean, dotnet run
• The MySpa issue persists.
• Restart Visual Studio 2022, dotnet clean, dotnet run, the issue is fixed.

@diegopego A tip, to build a higher package version (build number increased) locally, you can run a set BUILD_NUMBER=XXX before the build.cmd CI-Release. Also run set WSPackageFolder=../localnuget if you want to run multiple builds like core->ui->templates

[diegopego]

Could you please elaborate on the multiple builds?

[Jand42]

@diegopego If you have core+ui+templates checked out inside same root, also having a localnuget folder for local packages, you can do in a cmd:

set BUILD_NUMBER=300
set WSPackageFolder=../localnuget
set SKIP_CORE_TESTING=True

cd core
call build.cmd CI-Release

cd ../ui
call build.cmd CI-Release

cd ../templates
call build.cmd CI-Release

Because package update looks in ../localnuget by default for local builds. SKIP_CORE_TESTING=True is optional to make process quicker if you have confidence in test coverage.
