I am starting the development on windows phone 8, the famous JSON.NET does not support windows phone 8 yet, is there any other library which can be used for this purpose?
The JSON.NET codeplex site says that WP8 is supported.
Update: The JSON.NET NuGet package should just work with a Windows Phone 8.0 project. Adding it in VS2012 NuGet manager pulls in the WP7 version of JSON.NET. (packages\Newtonsoft.Json.4.5.10\lib\sl3-wp\Newtonsoft.Json.dll
)
JSON.NET is now also available as a Portable Class Library which you can consume from WP8 (available in NuGet or in source form).
Had the exact same problem - turns out I didn't have the newest version of NuGet.
To upgrade, click tools -> extensions and updates
and then click the Updates
-tab. Update everything, restart the program and try again. :-)
I was having this issue. I was able to compile the source for Windows Phone 8 instead of Windows 7.1 and it worked. NuGet would not work for me.
Here is how I did it:
Thats it. I can't vouch that it works 100% or that you'll be able to submit your app. But it should hold you over until there is official support.
