+For me, when i need to compile a test application that uses an 
+ADO.NET provider on windows, i have to explicitly specify the path 
+to the mcs.exe binary on mono.  For some reason, the mcs shelll 
+script doesn't always work.
+
+On Windows via Cygwin, I do:
+mono C:/cygwin/home/MyHome/mono/install/bin/mcs.exe \
+     MyTestApp.cs \
+     -lib:C:/cygwin/home/MyHome/mono/install/lib \
+     -r System.Data.dll -r Mono.Data.MySql.dll
+
+On Linux, I do:
+mcs MyTestApp.cs \
+    -r System.Data.dll -r Mono.Data.MySql.dll
+
+If i do specify 
+"mcs" 
+instead of 
+"mono C:/cygwin/home/MyHome/mono/install/bin/mcs.exe"
+I get the following errors:
+
+DanielMorgan@DANPC ~/mono/mcs/class/Mono.Data.MySql/Test
+$ mcs MySqlTest.cs -r System.Data.dll -r Mono.Data.MySql.dll
+MySqlTest.cs(486) error CS0030: Cannot convert 
+type 'System.Data.IDbConnection'
+to 'Mono.Data.MySql.MySqlConnection'

+method 'void Test.
