[Mono-winforms-list] Still can't get winforms to work

[Peter Dennis Bartok]

It's not even using the right System.Windows.Forms.dll . The managed version 
does not have TextBox code *at all*. Not even stubbed. You are clearly 
running the old dll.

Followed it to the letter.

This box has never had mono on and was built fresh from cvs.

I've looked in /usr/local/lib/mono and the symlink for SWF points
to /usr/lib/mono/gac rather than /usr/local/lib/mono/gac. If I correct
this to point to /usr/local/lib/mono/gac, SWF programs still don't work.

Here's the code I'm trying to run

// created on 26/06/2004 at 21:01

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Windows.Forms;


public class TestTextBox : Form {

TextBox tb = new TextBox();
TextBox tb2 = new TextBox();

public static void Main() {

  Application.Run(new TestTextBox());

}

TestTextBox() {

  // some form text.
  Text = "Textbox test";

  // label
  Label l = new Label();
  l.Size = new Size(300, 16);
  l.Text = "Give me your name please:";
  l.Parent = this;
  l.Location = new Point(1,10);

  // textbox
  tb.Location = new Point(1,30);
  tb.MaxLength = 100;
  tb.Size = new Size(200,16);
  tb.Parent = this;

  // textbox
  tb2.Location = new Point(1,50);
  tb2.MaxLength = 100;
  tb2.Size = new Size(200,16);
  tb2.Parent = this;

  // Button
  Button b = new Button();
  b.Location = new Point(1,70);
  b.Text = "Press me";
  b.Parent = this;
  b.Click += new EventHandler(ButtonOnClick);

}

void ButtonOnClick(object obj, EventArgs ea) {

  tb2.Text = tb.Text;
  MessageBox.Show(tb2.Text);
}
}

Which compiles happily and then gives when trying to run...

Something is still making it want to link to winelib.
