[Mono-osx] Can't compile any VB.NET code

[Hess, Philip J]

Even the dummy code from the simple VB console app won't compile:

Public Class application
	Public Shared Sub Main()
		System.Console.WriteLine("Hello world!")
	End Sub
End Class

See complete build output below.

I found a similar error report elsewhere:

http://lists.ximian.com/pipermail/mono-vb/2008-February.txt

But I couldn't find any resolution of that reported problem.

I can compile CS console apps, just not VB.NET apps.

Any idea what's wrong with Mono?

PowerPC, OS X 10.4.11, Mono 1.2.6_6 - installed without any problems.

Thanks.

-Phil
