[MonoDevelop] Building Monodevelop under Monodevelop in Windows

[Jay Bazuzi]

I didn't realize that. I was following the instructions at
http://monodevelop.com/Developers/Building_MonoDevelop, and it doesn't
mention setting the target platform. Who can I contact about updating that
page?

So, I switched runtime to Microsoft .NET, and got a build error because it
couldn't find the reference Mono.Posix. What I found was that closing &
reopening the solution after switching runtime to Microsoft .NET caused it
to find Mono.Posix correctly. Is this a bug in MonoDevelop?

With that out of the way, the build proceeded further, but then failed with:

c:\Users\Jay\GitHub\monodevelop\main\src\core\MonoDevelop.Projects.Formats.MSBuild\MonoDevelop.Projects.Formats.MSBuild\ProjectBuilder.cs(6,6):
> Error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'var' could not be found (are you
> missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) (CS0246)
> (MonoDevelop.Projects.Formats.MSBuild.v2.0)


That's weird - is it using an old version of the compiler? What is going on?
