[Mono-dev] [PATCH] Use the correct type for S.D.Printing.PrintDocument.PrintController

[Carlos Alberto Cortez]

Hey,

I tried your sample with .Net 2.0, and got:

controller = System.Windows.Forms.PrintControllerWithStatusDialog

Probably in .Net 1.1 it's handled different (if you are using that
version, of course).

Carlos.
