We plan on documenting our experience with how we get on (for example, where we got caught out) - our intention being to return this to the mono project so others can come up to speed more quickly. This might be the basis for a new/improved "getting started".

VS.NET templates typically add System.Xml and System.Data to every project created. :| On 7/11/06, Dick Porter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tue, 2006-07-11 at 19:16 +0100, mike horsley wrote: > > > We have successfully compiled a basic "hello world" app and run it but > > when we add a reference to System.Data into the application, we get > > the compilation error that the type or namespace "Data" (or if we try > > "Xml") does not exist in the name "System". > > > > We've looked at the environment variables (PATH, MONO_PATH) and > > suspect this to be the problem because none are set. > > Have you added -reference:System.Data.dll to the mcs command line? > > - Dick > > > > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.4 (GNU/Linux) > > iD8DBQBEs/AY5y3El+U5Mz8RAv7wAJ9Rs/IezBM/PrN7j6Hu9U2yVrKhlACgkS4e > LQHmhcgRBMShGJLbZLCLBSw= > =S6DP > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > > > _______________________________________________ > Mono-devel-list mailing list > Mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com > http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list > > > -- Rafael "Monoman" Teixeira --------------------------------------- "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
