I just installed mono 0.17 from the RPMs (mono and mono-devel) on RH
7.1. I can successfully compile and run console applications, but any
class I try to compile that uses System.Windows.Forms gives me the
following error:
SimpleHelloWorld.cs(15) error CS0246: Cannot find type `Form'
Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warnings
I have the simplest of classes (actually sample code form the .NET SDK),
shown below:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
public class SimpleHelloWorld : Form {
[STAThread]
public static int Main(string[] args) {
Application.Run(new SimpleHelloWorld());
return 0;
}
public SimpleHelloWorld() {
this.Text = "Hello World";
}
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I think I have everything I need. I found System.Windows.Forms.dll in
/usr/lib. I even ildasm'ed it from my Windows box and found all the
classes in there (including Form).
Any hints?
Thanks
Andy
