Install different versions of nuget packages inside one solution file with two projects

Question

I have two .csproj projects named A and B under one solution file (.sln), I need to install a custom nuget package of version 1.0 in A and 2,0 in B. Is that possible? I have tried to install-package but it updates the solution. Both of them are now updated to 2.0.

Answer 1

You can do it using the console instead the manager window,

PM> Install-Package Newtonsoft.Json -Version 6.0.8 

in the other project

PM> Install-Package Newtonsoft.Json -Version 5.0.3
