Referencing PCLCrypto in a NetStandard1.3 project

I'm trying to add a reference to the package PCLCrypto (2.0.147) in a project using NetStandard 1.3

After I add the import "portable-net45+netcore45+wpa81" in the project.json, it builds, but keep showing the errors.


project.json:

{
  "supports": {},
  "dependencies": {
    "Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore": "1.1.1",
    "NETStandard.Library": "1.6.1",
    "PCLCrypto": "2.0.147",
    "System.ComponentModel.Primitives": "4.1.0",
    "WraUtil.Helpers": "1.8.2"
  },
  "frameworks": {
    "netstandard1.3": {
      "imports": "portable-net45+netcore45+wpa81"
    }
  }
}

errors:

Do I need to configure anything else?

In the imports field in your project.json file, you should put a target framework which is compatible with PCLCrypto 2.0.147, and those errors are basically telling you which options you have.

For example, one of those supported target frameworks is portable-net45+win8+wp8+wpa81 which is compatible with netstandard1.0, which means that it can be also referenced by a netstandard1.3 project (you can find here more info about compatibility between the old PCL profiles and new .NET Standard versions).

So, update your imports field to: "imports": "portable-net45+win8+wp8+wpa81".

Small bonus - in case you decide to move from project.json to new MSBuild (csproj) style projects, you can achieve the same with:

<PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFramework>netstandard1.3</TargetFramework>
    <PackageTargetFallback>portable-net45+win8+wp8+wpa81</PackageTargetFallback>
</PropertyGroup>
