Wow. Yeah, I can see why that too awhile! :) Thanks for the explanation. I understand the issue here, and I see the difference between the two versions.
Thanks also for the build script. That will help a lot going forward. I'm just about to set up (build) Mono 2.4 on another Ubuntu 8.04 machine, so that looks the business! Is the whole script available somewhere? I know I could probably just finish it myself fairly quickly, but if you've already got one that works, that'd be very cool. ;) I don't really use any other of the default Ubuntu mono apps, but I didn't want to deal with dependency-hell with apt to try and remove only what I didn't actually need. I figured it'd just be safer to build from source, use the source script to toggle the environment and leave well enough alone. I do the same thing to cycle between several versions of the JDK when I'm doing that sort of thing too, so it isn't a new trick. What I ought to do is summarize all of this nicely into a blog post, but I've issues with my blog at the moment. At least I have the emails, and I'll likely be going through this again after a while to set up another machine. By then, I should have my blog sorted! :) Thanks so much for all your help! ast On Thu, 2009-11-26 at 13:45 +0100, Ivan Porto Carrero wrote: > and as to why you're seeing that there is because > > > require 'System.Windows.Forms, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, > PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' > > > is the only line of content in the file > > > lib/ironruby/System.Windows.Forms.rb > > > because paths are case sensitive it was looking in lib/IronRuby for > the file System.Windows.Forms.rb but couldn't find it and told you > about it. > The ir.exe.config file holds the initial search paths for IronRuby. > > > I came across this issue when I tried to use gems it took a while > before I got to 1 + 1 = 2 > --- > Met vriendelijke groeten - Best regards - Salutations > Ivan Porto Carrero > Blog: http://flanders.co.nz > Google Wave: portocarrero.i...@googlewave.com > Twitter: http://twitter.com/casualjim > Author of IronRuby in Action (http://manning.com/carrero) > > > > On Thu, Nov 26, 2009 at 12:46 PM, Andrew S.
