[Mono-devel-list] MySql Connectivity in Mono

[Joshua J. Brickel]

This would probably work with Mono on Windows.  However for Mono on 
Linux I have had problems using the MySql .Data because it has been 
specifically compiled for windows and does not seem to allow for one to 
open the database using Unix like sockets. 

Has anyone else had this experience?  From what I remember of the 1.0.2 
version of MySql connector from the mysql.com website is that within the 
code there are mono/dotnet compiler options that must be set/unset.  But 
at anyrate what I found was that the version precompiled on the website 
will not work on Linux.
