Perhaps only that one test used anything from System.dll.

NickD will probably be able to advise you on the best way to set up your test
suite. Is there a particular reason why you want to test Mono's M.VB.dll
together with Mono's System.dll on Windows, instead of using Microsoft's
System.dll?

Unless you are seeing a difference in behaviour running the tests under the
full Mono runtime compared to under MS.NET, perhaps it would be best just
linking against Mono's M.VB.dll to help isolate the problems the tests look
for.

Dan.


eg:

only copy Mono's Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll into the test directory, then:

csc /noconfig /r:.\Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll /r:System.dll test.cs
./test.exe

This should grab M.VB.dll from the current directory, and then picks up
corlib.dll and System.dll from the GAC.
