[Mono-list] Problems with Visual Studio 2005 compiled code

[Jonathan Chambers]

Eric,
     This definitely looks like an issue with running a PE+ executable
(produced if you target the x64 platform). If I try to run a PE+ executable
under mono I get:

Cannot open assembly test.exe.

Mono currently does not support PE+, although it may in the near term as the
consensus is that is shouldn't be too hard to do. I'm guessing both times
you somehow produced a PE+ executable. Try specifically targeting x86 as the
platform and see if you application runs.

Thanks,
Jonathan
