[Mono-aspnet-list] Fluent NHibernate & Mono 2.8

[Chris Thielen]

Hi everybody,

I'm new to C#, MVC 2, Mono, and .NET in general but I'm a seasoned
programmer in other languages / frameworks. I've been tasked with learning
and using ASP.NET MVC 2 at work and though I've got the basics down, I'm
having trouble with some common add-on libraries I'm hoping somebody on the
list will know about.

In particular, some teams at work use Fluent NHibernate, which seems like a
really nice, strongly-typed ORM solution for .NET and fits in nicely with
MVC 2. My problem is, it doesn't seem to compile / work on my system.

I'm running MonoDevelop 2.4.1 with Mono 2.8.2 on OS X 10.6.6. I've
downloaded the latest Fluent NHibernate (v1.1 as of this writing) and when I
attempt to compile the example / library, I get the following error:

Building: Examples.FirstProject (Debug)

Performing main compilation...

Now, I understand this list is about ASP.NET development on Mono and not
necessarily related to Fluent NHibernate, but my general inclination from
reading around online is that, when it comes to a Mono compatibility issue,
it's sometimes best to confront the Mono community first, before contacting
developers who may or may not care about Mono compatibility.

Does anybody know what might be going on here? Does anybody use Fluent
NHibernate on Mono?
