           Summary: global:: qualifier does not work with generic types
           Product: Mono: Compilers
           Version: 1.2
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Ubuntu
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: C#
        AssignedTo: mono-bugs at ximian.com
        ReportedBy: michi at zeroc.com

gmcs complains about a syntax error on line 14 in the code below. The same code
compiles fine with Visual Studio.

class NonGeneric {}
class Generic<T> {}

class m
{

    public global::NonGeneric
    compiles_fine(global::NonGeneric i, out global::NonGeneric o)
    {
        o = new global::NonGeneric();
        return new global::NonGeneric();
    }

    public global::Generic<int>
    does_not_compile(global::Generic<int> i, out global::Generic<int> o)
    {
        o = new global::Generic<int>();
        return new global::Generic<int>();
    }
}

Note that "global::" works for the non-generic class, but doesn't work with the
generic class.

Cheers,

Michi.
