I'm trying to build an Android and iOS app with Xamarin using a shared PCL library. I'm following the tutorial on the Xamarin website [1].
I have created my PCL solution, which currently doesn't do anything, and I'm now trying to reference it from another Android solution.
The documentation indicates I should use References and then select Projects. However, when I do this, I can't either see or find a way to add my PCL library project as a reference.
How can I add my PCL library solution as a reference in another solution?
A solution is just a container for one or more projects. One project can be included in multiple solutions. By including multiple projects in one solution you can reference them from one another, which will allow them to automatically build/update their dependencies when needed. You can add a new project to an existing solution by doing "Add New Project" in the solution explorer - you don't have to create a complete new solution for each project.
