JsonSerializer exception with Facebook C# SDK

Question

I'm getting the error:

"The type initializer for 'Facebook.JsonSerializer' threw an exception."

with a more specific error of:

"Could not load file or assembly 'Newtonsoft.Json, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified"

You might get more responses if you give more information about what you tried that resulted in that error. Simply pasting in an error message usually doesn't inspire people to look into your problem. — Shawn Chin

Ok, I found the issue, so here goes for anyone having the problem:

You need the Newtonsoft JSON library, which you can download from:

http://json.codeplex.com/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx

I used the Newtonsoft.Json.dll in the Net directory.

I actually knew this answer before posting the question, but I figure the answer will help others running into the same issue. Looking into the InnerException of my original exception answered my question :)
