SideDrawer in Xamarin Android

[Moni]

I am using Xamarin forms and want to use SideDrawer. I am able to implement the same in ios but when when I am implementing the same thing using Telerik SideDrawer control in Android, I am getting this error :

Com.Telerik.Android.Primitives.Widget.Sidedrawer.RadSideDrawer' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. Consider adding a reference to assembly `Telerik.Xamarin.Android.Primitives, Version=2016.3.1202.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' (CS0012) 

 

I have already added the required assembly mentioned in Telerik site in both Forms and Android project but noting seems to be working.

Any help would be appreciated

 

Thanks.

Hello Moni,

Please make sure that you have added references to the latest version of the SkiaSharp library(you can install SkiaSharp.Views and SkiaSharp.Views.Forms packages through NuGet) as well as the Telerik.XamarinForms.Primitives DLL is dependent on it. I have attached a sample for your reference. If you have already applied the references, please make sure that all the referenced Telerik DLLs are the same version.

I downloaded the SideDrawerTest and tried to get it working. It builds with R3 2017 references but I get a runtime error:

Unhandled Exception:

System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type Telerik.XamarinForms.PrimitivesRenderer.Android.SideDrawerRenderer while decoding custom attribute: (null) occurred.

Is there something missing ?

Hi Ian,

I have tested the project on my end and it works correctly. Could you check the references you are adding?

Here is the list of the required assemblies you need to add to the portable project:
Portable/Telerik.XamarinForms.Common.dll
Portable/Telerik.XamarinForms.Primitives.dll

Here is the list of the required assemblies you need to add to the Android project:
Android/Telerik.Xamarin.Android.Common.dll
Android/Telerik.Xamarin.Android.Primitives.dll
Android/Telerik.XamarinForms.Common.dll
Android/Telerik.XamarinForms.Primitives.dll

I hope this helps.
