Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Workspaces, Version=2.3.0.0 in VSIX project

Microsoft.CodeAnalysis Version Used: 2.3.2

Steps to Reproduce:

Create a VSIX (c#) project in Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 with .Net framework 4.6 Add latest Microsoft.CodeAnalysis library to VSIX project Add menu command to the VSIX project Add following code in menu command action

string projectFilePath = @"C:\ConsoleApp1\ConsoleApp1.csproj";
string outputFilePath = @"C:\ConsoleApp1\ConsoleApp1.dll";
Project project = null;

    using (var workspace = MSBuildWorkspace.Create())
    {
        project = workspace.OpenProjectAsync(projectFilePath).Result;
        var compilation = project.GetCompilationAsync().Result;
        var compilationStatus = compilation.Emit(outputFilePath);
        bool isSuccess = compilationStatus.Success; 
    }

Expected Behavior: Roslyn should be able to compile the project and emit output to target location.

Actual Behavior: Following exception occurred when invoking the command.

Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Workspaces, Version=2.3.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Note: Error doesn't occur and command executes successfully when version of the Microsoft.CodeAnalysis is downgraded to 1.3.2

Please let me know if any fix is available for this issue.

see What's the latest version of Roslyn my analyzer can target if I support VS2015?. Roslyn 1.3.2 is the newest version that will work with Visual Studio 2015 Update 3
