[Mono-winforms-list] Re: Showing a Messagebox

[s.livingstone@btinternet.com]

Hi Jordi - sorry for the delay... last day in this job and lot of running around.

So, on Windows i am running under the v1.1 .net runtime and NOT using Mono at all under Windows (i hope my mails before didn't cuase confusion on this!). I am *only* running Mono under Redhat Linux (i had tried to get Cygwin working, but gave up after unsuccessfully trying to get everything working together).

The code is below, however when i compile it i can only get "mcs hellopop.cs /r:System.Windows.Forms /r:System.Data /r:System.Windows.Forms" to compile this. If i try to include the references to System.Collections or System.Component model it tells me it cannot find these assemblies and true enough they are not in the /lib/... directory where the other ones are. Will this affect it?? I looking at the go-mono site and it seems to indicate these are available, but i'm not sure where they would be.

Any help much appreciated.
