Can I use Xamarin.Android trial version for Xamarin.Forms?

Can I use Xamarin.Android trial version for Xamarin.Forms?

I'm getting the following error: 

Build failed. See the build log for details:

System.ArgumentException: minimumEdition
в Xamarin.Components.Ide.Activation.ActivationReason..ctor(XamarinProduct product, Restriction restriction, XamarinEdition minimumEdition, String errorText, String errorCode, String restrictedItem)

Where I can find Xamarin.Forms trial version?

Solution

  • From the website https://xamarin.com/starter

    Apps must meet size restrictions(128k of compiled C# or F# code), include only managed code (not Objective-C/Swift, Java, or C/C++ libraries), and use Xamarin.iOS/Xamarin.Android, not Xamarin.Forms.

    When you use the Trial version then you should be able to use Xamarin.Forms as mentioned here: http://developer.xamarin.com/guides/cross-platform/getting_started/beginning_a_xamarin_trial/

    Ask the support in case you have problems with your license. They're going to help you quickly.
