Creating a PCL that targets Monodroid

问题:

I am looking at the shiny MVVMCross project, specifically the N+1 days of MVVMCross series, and I notice that @slodge creates a PCL that targets Mono for android and Monotouch (at 1:10).

I have mono for Android installed, but my VS does not give me any PCL targets apart from the standard - am I doing anything wrong?

The situation for PCLs is changing - Xamarin are releasing official support for PCLs very soon.

In the meantime, there are quite a few blog posts around on how to get PCLs working unofficially - eg.:

• http://slodge.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/my-current-pcl-setup-in-visual-studio.html

These unofficial mods have been around for over a year now - eg all the way back to http://slodge.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/using-portable-library-tools-for.html
