[Mono-winforms-list] running a winform .exe

[samyc at free.fr]

Hello,
I'm new to this mailing list, I try to run a helloMono.exe which I designed in
Visual C#. It is composed only by a main Form, a label and a button.
I succeded in compiling it with the command:
gmcs -r:System.Data -r:System.Drawing -r:System.Windows.Forms -out:helloMono.exe
*.cs
to have a helloMono.exe
but when I try to run it with:
mono helloMono.exe
I have lots of error messages:


Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown
by the type initializer for System.Windows.Forms.XplatUI --->
System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown by the type
initializer for System.Drawing.GDIPlus ---> System.DllNotFoundException:

I've put a symbolic link
libgdiplus.so -> ~/mono-1.2.5.1/lib/libgdiplus.so*
but it's the same error....
>ldconfig -p |grep libgdiplus
        libgdiplus.so.0 (libc6) => ~/mono-1.2.5.1/lib/libgdiplus.so.0
        libgdiplus.so (libc6) => ~/mono-1.2.5.1/lib/libgdiplus.so



Any clue?
