[Mono-list] A few questions about Mono for Windows

[Dimitris Pantazopoulos]

Hello everybody,

I just downloaded and installed Mono 2.10.8 for Windows in Windows 7 64bit Ultimate. The installation claims to include GTK# 2.12.11. 
Here are my questions:

1) None of the start menu entries under 'Applications' works. The target paths do not exist, for example there is no 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Mono-2.10.8\bin\glade-3.exe'. Any ideas why?


2) I tried your samples 'Mono Basics' samples. The GTK# does not compile and produces the following errors instead:
C:\Users\Dimitris\Documents>gmcs MonoHelloWorld-GTK.cs -pkg:gtk-sharp-2.0
error CS0006: Metadata file `C:/PROGRA\~2/MONO-2\~1.8/lib/mono/gtk-sharp-2.0/pan
go-sharp.dll' could not be found
error CS0006: Metadata file `C:/PROGRA\~2/MONO-2\~1.8/lib/mono/gtk-sharp-2.0/atk
-sharp.dll' could not be found
error CS0006: Metadata file `C:/PROGRA\~2/MONO-2\~1.8/lib/mono/gtk-sharp-2.0/gdk
-sharp.dll' could not be found
error CS0006: Metadata file `C:/PROGRA\~2/MONO-2\~1.8/lib/mono/gtk-sharp-2.0/gtk
-sharp.dll' could not be found
error CS0006: Metadata file `C:/PROGRA\~2/MONO-2\~1.8/lib/mono/gtk-sharp-2.0/gli
b-sharp.dll' could not be found
Compilation failed: 5 error(s), 0 warnings

I am using the Mono Command Prompt, the PATH variable is correct and the DLLs mentioned in the error message do exist. What am I doing wrong?


3) In addition to (2), I've tried to install MonoDevelop 2.8.6.5, which fails with the error: 'Gtk# version 2.12.9 or greater must be installed.'. Is it safe to assume that something is wrong with the GTK# installation? Should I reinstall or use another setup file? 


Thank you very much in advance,
D
