[MonoDevelop] Newbie question: Making a reference to a linux shared library

[alanb]

I tried P/Invoke, I created a shared library, wrapped it in C# class and it
all compiles ok. But when I try to execute one of the external functions I
get an exception -  System.DllNotFoundException: libtest.so . As this is an
experiment I do not want to place my library in /usr , /lib etc so I tried
setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH in a shell but that doesnt seem to work for me. I am
assuming that I need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the shell created by
monodevelops run command, so can someone tell me how to do this?

Thanks
Alan
