The Google YouTube v3 client SDK for .NET is targeted for .NET 4.5, however I am looking at using it in my application which targets .Net 4.0.

Does Google provide any SDK targeting 4.0, or does the application implement it?

I use it with .NET 4.0. I installed via the Visual Studio NuGet Package Manager Console using the command: 

       Install-Package Google.Apis.YouTube.v3

Also, I had to install Windows 7 update KB2468871 and all outstanding updates via Windows Update.

  • My application would be used by a number of users, cannot assure all update their system. – mathi joshi Apr 17 '15 at 07:47
  • You might consider including something in your documentation that indicates that your software may not operate if the underlying Windows operating system and the .NET 4.0 Framework is not up-to-date. – Mike Meinz Apr 17 '15 at 17:20
  • That would not be a smooth user experience though. Has anyone tried without using the client SDK? – mathi joshi Apr 18 '15 at 04:11
  • I forgot to tell you that it was in July, 2014 that I first used the .NET 4.0 Framework with the YouTube V3 API. That was when I updated with the latest Windows Update patches on Windows 7. If your users have updated near or after July, 2014, they should be OK. – Mike Meinz Apr 18 '15 at 10:52

  • I don't think there us another option. Use the .NET 4.0 Framework. It will work. – Mike Meinz Apr 20 '15 at 15:35
