Cant Create Automapper custom value resolver

I have been trying to create a automapper Custom value resolvers, but I seem to have missed some set up step as it can never seem to find 

 public abstract class ValueResolver<TSource, TDestination> : IValueResolver

So in the following snippet will not compile. 

using DITest.Models; // This is where the SalesOrder class is
using AutoMapper;

namespace DITest.AutoMapper.SaleOrder
{
  public class FullAddress : ValueResolver<SalesOrder, string>
  {
    protected override string ResolveCore(SalesOrder source)
    {
        return "foo bar"; 
    }
  }
}

I get the error message

The type or namespace name 'ValueResolver<,>' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Its say the using AutoMapper is not used.

In the past I have been naughty and hacked in a reference for lib\net45\AutoMapper.dll

ValueResolver is gone. IValueResolver is the replacement. And there is also IMemberValueResolver, as the docs say.

Please try IMemberValueResolver type instead of IValueResolver. The AutoMapper had some upgraded things.
