Windows phone wrapPanel does not exist error

Question

I have a xaml which has the following code.

<ListBox.ItemsPanel>
    <ItemsPanelTemplate>
        <toolkit:WrapPanel Orientation="Horizontal"/>
    </ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemsPanel>

Now the error says that The name wrappanel does exist in the namespace clr-namespace:Microsoft.Phone.Controls etc...

Any idea how to fix it.

You need to add the namespace to the root element of the page and you also need to reference it in your project either directly from the disk or by using NuGet:

Install-Package WPToolkit

In your XAML add the following:

xmlns:toolkit="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Phone.Controls;assembly=Microsoft.Phone.Controls.Toolkit"

Of course you do, that doesn't come with the default Windows Phone project. – Toni Petrina Mar 06 '14 at 16:47
Do you know the exact name for the package used for windows phone 8? Is it there in Nuget? – user88975 Mar 06 '14 at 16:50

It's not working because Windows Phone toolkit is only available for

Windows Phone Silverlight Applications.
