I need to reference the ZXing library to scan QR codes in my Windows Phone 8 app. I have downloaded the ZXing.Net 0.10.0.0 from the following source: http://zxingnet.codeplex.com/
However, whenever i try to add a reference to zxing.wp8.0.dll, I get an error as follows:
A reference to higher version or incompatible assembly cannot be added to the project.
Can I please know why am I getting this error. Is there anything that I am doing wrong or missing?
ZXing.Net is a port of ZXing, an open-source, multi-format 1D/2D barcode image processing library originally implemented in Java. It has been ported by hand with a lot of optimizations and improvements.
Right click on the DLL in File Explorer --> Click Properties --> Choose unblock. Then try to add a reference again.
VS2012 has the absolute worst error message for when DLLs are blocked due to the fact they were downloaded from the web.
