Change your class library (and any dependents) to build against 4.6 as well .NET Core;

This will now build both versions of the class library for you.

In your .NET 4.6 project (App) then add a direct reference to the class library's DLL found in the debug folder

You can now import this namespace, and build against it. Although ReSharper (2016.3 EAP 2) seems to get confused and marks those lines in red - it's a stop gap until later .NET releases.

If you open up the application project file (.csproj), you'll see the reference added by framework.

NB: Build code dnx462 doesn't seem to work, complains about .NET framework not being installed, even though the project has a 4.6.2 WPF App.
