Question

I have a project that targets Windows Phone 7. I would like to use Json.NET in the project. But when I am trying to install the Json.NET package in my project via NuGet Package Manager it says:

Could not install package 'Newtonsoft.Json 6.0.1'. You are trying to install this package into a project that targets 'portable-win+net45+sl40+wp', but the package does not contain any assembly references or content files that are compatible with that framework.

I assume this is because latest version of Json.NET doesn't support Windows Phone 7. How can I install an older version of Json.NET? Preferably via NuGet. What is the latest Json.NET version compatible with Windows Phone 7?

I am using Visual Studio 2012.

Was it helpful?
