[Mono-list] Compilation problem in mcs-0.20

[Stefan Matthias Aust]

Hi!

I tried to compile mono-0.20 on windows/cygin. I think i followed the 
instructions.  I've .NET 1.0.3705 installed.  I upgraded cygwin to the 
most current version, added the provided prebuild zips relative to /usr 
(even though it seems that cygwin comes with iconv-1.8.2 instead of 1.7) 
extracted the sources to /tmp/mono, cd'ed to mcs-0.20 and said "make" 
(it so).

Now, there're a couple of errors while compiling 
System.Data.OracleClient.dll:

C:\cygwin\tmp\mono\mcs-0.20\class\System.Data.OracleClient\System.Data.OracleClient\OracleMonthSpan.cs(42,10): 
error CS0516: Ein Konstruktor 
'System.Data.OracleClient.OracleMonthSpan.OracleMonthSpan(System.Data.OracleClient.OracleMonthSpan)' 
kann sich nicht selbst aufrufen  (the constructor cannot call itself)

And I think, the csc is right, "public OracleMonthSpan (OracleMonthSpan 
from) : this (from)" doesn't make sense.   I've really no clue about 
that code, but perhaps "this (from.value)" was meant?

There're six other problems in this file.  In line 64, a method declared 
to return "byte[]" tries to return an "int".  Because of this "byte[]", 
most other methods freak out. I changed the return type to "int".


Here's my tiny diff:
43c43
<                       : this (from.value) //sma
---
 >                       : this (from)
60c60
<               public int Value { //sma
---
 >               public byte[] Value {


bye
