I've tried adding a reference to it, and I can't find that assembly, even in the mono directories. So the question is, does compiling Resx files work in mono?
It does. The long story: Microsoft has implemented the ResX support in the System.Windows.Forms assembly (a GUI library) and reused it from System.Web. For compatibility reasons, Mono did the same (Mono's System.Windows.Forms can be found in the Native.Windows.Forms directory side-by-side with System.Web inside "mcs/class"). However, since System.Windows.Forms is kinda unsupported and deprecated under Mono, the team has begun including the ResX source code directly into System.Web: https://github.com/mono/mono/blob/master/mcs/class/System.Web/System.Web.dll.sources What you can do is: - install System.Windows.Forms. It's usually part of Mono but your disto might have split it into its own package. - build your aspnet update inside Mono mcs/class tree while reusing the build infrastructure. Look at how Mono's System.Web is built.
