Getting the Contoso Cookbook Windows 8 app to work

Question

I downloaded the Contoso Cookbook sample app found here, to see what steps I needed to take to implement in app purchases within my app. However, whenever I try to build the app, I get the following error:

Could not find "Callisto, Version=1.1.0"

I have Callisto version 1.4.0 on my PC, but unfortunately the Contoso Cookbook sample app refuses to recognize it. Can someone suggest a solution to my problem? E.g. is there a way to have the sample app reference the newer version of the Callisto controls? Thanks.

Answer 1

Try removing the old reference and then add in the new one

Answer 2

Do this:
1) Remove the existing Callisto reference

2) Go to Tools > Library Package Manager > Package Manger Console

3) Type "Install-Package Callisto -Version 1.3.1"

Now it should work.

NOTE: If I ask for code, please provide something that I can drop directly into a project and run (including XAML), or an actual application project. I'm trying to help a lot of people, so I don't have time to figure out weird snippets with undefined objects and unknown namespaces.

Whoa! That worked! Many thanks!
