Is .NET Core compatible with COM?

I am trying to understand the implications of starting a project on .NET core. One of the requirement I am facing is to use a .NET library that is leveraging COM.

So is COM supported by .NET core (obviously, assuming the OS is Windows)?

I understand that .NET Core is built for interoperability between different OS. But I was wondering if it is to be expected that there are Windows-specific features that may be included for the windows releases such as COM compatibility.

Thanks for your help.

  • .NET Core is developed to be cross platform and running also on Linux and Mac. COM is a windows specific thing and will not be supported in .NET Core
