Newtonsoft.json.dll version

Posted by Community Admin on 24-Jan-2012 00:00

Hi,

I'm using the GoogleMapsForNET v0.9.2a in an application. It uses Newtonsoft.json V3.5r6, but when I try to use it within Sitefinity, I get an error:

"does not implement inherited abstract member 'Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConverter.ReadJson"

My assumption is that you're using a different release of V3.5...but I can't figure out which one...both DLLs show the same version info:

Json35r6 Image Runtime Version:
Newtonsoft.Json, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed

Sitefinity Json Image Runtime Version:
Newtonsoft.Json, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed

Can you tell me which version you're using in Sitefinity 4.0? Are there plans to upgrade Newtonsoft.json to the 4.0 version?

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,

The version Sitefinity uses is 3.5.0.0. As a test can you do binding redirect to the version of the assembly you have downloaded and works.

<runtime>

<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">

<probing privatePath="bin;sitefinity\admin\bin" />

<dependentAssembly>

<assemblyIdentity

name="Telerik.Sitefinity"

publicKeyToken="b28c218413bdf563"

culture="neutral" />

<bindingRedirect

oldVersion="4.3.1885.0"

newVersion="4.4.2117.0" />

</dependentAssembly>

</assemblyBinding>

</runtime>

Can you tell me which version you're using in Sitefinity 4.0? Are there plans to upgrade Newtonsoft.json to the 4.0 version?
In all Sitefinity 4 version released the version of Newtownsoft.json.dll is 3.5.0.0, for Sitefinity 5 which is the next release the version will remain the same. I can`t give you information if the release after 5.0 will be using newer version.

But there were several releases of Newtonsoft.json which all seem to have the same file version 3.5.0.0. I realized this myself when I discovered the ReadJson method signature is different in the one you use and the one I've been using. Do you know which release (e.g. R5, R6, R7 or R8) you're using?

Thanks,
Mike
