Cannot store/retrieve strings since release 3.1.1

Version 3.1.1 is the last version I could successfully store/retrieve string-based settings. It crashes since I updated to 4.0.0.7 on iOS. Since then I had to downgrade to 3.1.1 when compiling for Android.

Bug Information

Version Number of Plugin: 4.0.0.10-beta Device Tested On: Samsung S7 Edge Simulator Tested On: Version of VS: 7.6.6 Version of Xamarin: Xamarin.Forms 3.2.83. Versions of other things you are using:

Steps to reproduce the Behavior

AppSettings.AddOrUpdateValue ("somekey", "some value");

Expected Behavior

var foo = AppSettings.GetValueOrDefault("somekey");
// This should contain "some value" but instead throws an exception

Actual Behavior

Throws exception System.TypeLoadException (Failure has occured while loading a type.)

Looks like somehow I had a version mixup for the plugin between the various parts of the application. Really don’t know how this could happen but everything works fine now and the incompatibilities I faced since version 3.1.1 might as well have been related to some compatibility packages for Android which were not up-to-date (it’s always a bit tricky since Xamarin.Forms does not systematically support the very latest available version of some compatibility library on Android and I ended up having quite some libraries which were announced as having a new version available but for which I did not try to upgrade anymore since I got used to trying to update for nuts and having to revert afterwards).

Sorry for disturbing and thanks for this very useful package.

Maybe turn off linking for the assemblies… not sure what your link settings are set to. I need a sample reproduction please.
