c# - Adding Json.Net to a Unity3D project

Question

I added the Json.Net library to Visual Studio 2013 via NuGetpackage and installed it for NetFramework 4.5. I don't get an error in Visual Studio when I add

using Newtonsoft.Json;

but in Unity3D 5.0 I get the error:

Assets/RobotController.cs(5,7): error CS0246: The type or namespace name `Newtonsoft' could not be found. Are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?

I looked up in my packages folders for this project and the dll file is there, so I don't understand the problem. Thx for help.

Answer 1

I had just the same problem in Visual Studio 2015. But Utamaru's solution worked for me.

Make a folder: Assets/Plugins where you put the *.dll file and add it as a reference.

To add a reference you highlight the Analyzers in the Solution Explorer in Visual Studio and under Project > Add Reference you can find your *.dll file located in Assets/Plugin by browsing to it.
