Correction to Mono_Basics

[mfisher1966]

New Mono user, etc. -- what a cool project!

What's the drill for reporting documentation issues or helping to make the edits? I see the "Editor Login" links, but there doesn't seem to be a registration form for new editors.

Wild guess -- it won't be too far off topic to mention the issue on this list. I'm using OpenSuse 10.2, and have been stepping through the examples from this page:

  http://www.mono-project.com/Mono_Basics

Everything goes OK, except the "Winforms Hello World" example. I did find a solution over on the Ubuntu forums, which is to compile using either of the following commands:

  mcs hello.cs -r:System.Windows.Forms.dll -r:System.Drawing.dll
  gmcs hello.cs -r:System.Windows.Forms.dll -r:System.Drawing.dll

Best,

 - Matt

Using -pkg:dotnet doesn't work for you?  At least on 10.3, dotnet.pc is
part of the mono-devel package; you might want to install the mono-devel
package if you don't have it installed.

Accounts are only available on request (though not from me!), because
of past problems with spam bots.
