[Mono-list] Difficulty with DllImport in mono - config.AG_Config file is not in load-path.

[jims]

Background, I am working on a C# wrapper for Agar ( http://libagar.org/ ) in
Visual Studio express 2010. I have knocked the .NET framework target down to
2.0 to improve platform compatibility, for users of older software.

When I try to run the first demo, I get this error:
[sjss at elrond ~/Desktop/Agar.NET_Demo]$ mono ./AgarDemo_Windows.exe 
[DllNotFoundException:ag_gui.dll]The //config.AG_Config file is not in
load-path.

verification it exists:
[sjss at elrond ~/Desktop/Agar.NET_Demo]$ ls -l /usr/local/lib | grep -e
'libag_.*.so'

I have installed Agar, FreeType and SDL on my machine, all the libs are in
/usr/local/lib, are in my libpath, and the directory has been ldconfig'ed
for good measure after the first time I saw the error.

Since Visual Studio 2010 wants to add the '.dll' to the first argument of
the DllImport call, I have added the following to the  section of the config
config of all of my .NET dlls/exes:
  
  


ag_core.so is loading properly, the error message is produced by:
  System.Console.WriteLine("["+e.GetType().Name+":"+e.Message+"]" +
Agar.GetError()+"\n");

The Agar.GetError() part is what I find interesting - that requires that
ag_core be called. I *believe* the "//config.AG_Config file is not in
load-path." portion of the error is being set by an earlier portion of the
code in a manner that doesn't cause an exception or problem, as a warning.
Regardless, it shouldn't make "ag_gui" unlocatable.


Any ideas what I should look into next?
Thanks,
