Use System.Net.Sockets in PCL (.Net 4.5 + phone 8)

I have existing .Net libraries that already work for .Net 4.5 and Windows Phone 8. Now I would like to convert this to a portable class library, and suddenly I can no longer use it System.Net.Sockets.

I just tried .Net 4.5 and Windows Phone 8. The Xbox / store / silverlight application was not selected. Xamarin is automatically selected because it has the same requirements.

I can avoid sockets using interfaces and stuff, but why can't I use it if they both support it?

There are other stackoverflow questions about this, but they use xbox or metro applications.

It seems the WinRT API has been added to PCL:

Use WinRT API in portable class libraries oriented to Windows 8 and WP8

This is a great offer. We have added this feature for new versions of both platforms. Therefore, when you create a portable library class with the following goals (or any subset) that you have access to the WinRT API:

  • Windows 8.1
  • Windows Phone 8.1
  • Windows Phone Silverlight 8.1 For the first two platforms, you can also create Windows Runtime (WinMD) components.
