    Assets\Script\Network\Receiver.cs(21,13): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'Thread' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

    Why can‘t found Thread? I have to use " Windows.System.Threading.ThreadPool"?

    Assets\Script\SharpZip\src\Encryption\ZipAESStream.cs(51,32): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'CryptoStream' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

    And this?System.Security.Cryptography also can't use...

    The threadpool problem has been reported many many times already. Use the search function.

    In a nutshell: Yes, you have to use Windows.System.Threading. You also have to wrap any code that uses Windows.* classes with #if NETFX_CORE / #endif. Refer to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh465290.aspx.

    Also, System.Security.Cryptography is NOT supported by Windows Store Apps. You have to use Windows.Security.Cryptography instead (see above).

    We are already providing implementations for some missing types as part of our WinRTLegacy library.
    System.Security.Cryptography has been started, but I can't give you any ETA for when and how much will be done.
    Thread is a more complicated issue, no promisses on it being implemented at all.

    Any news on how to fix this ?

    I tried implementing it like below, but it doesn't work:

    Code (csharp):
    1.  
    2. using System.Threading;
    3.  
    4. #if NETFX_CORE
    5.     private Windows.System.Threading.Thread _boardRetrievalThread;
    6. #else
    7.     private Thread _boardRetrievalThread;
    8. #endif
    9.
