I have been using the MySQL Connector in mono for quite a while with no trouble at all in my project at http://www.mojoportal.com
I compile it on Windows and deploy it to the bin folder of my web on linux and it works fine for me. I don't think I am using the very latest version of the Connector though, I think I am only 1 version behind the current Connector release. Hope it helps, Joe --- Brion Vibber <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The documentation at > http://www.mono-project.com/MySQL strongly suggests > that MySQL's Connector/NET should be used in > preference to the ByteFX > driver that ships with Mono. > > However the current release of MySQL Connector/NET > (1.0.5) appears to be > Windows-specific; it attempts to make native calls > into some ws2_32.dll > and fails to work on Mono on eg Linux or Mac OS X. > > Do we know if this is just a packaging bug (MySQL > forgot to build a > portable-friendly binary?) or if MySQL is > specifically abandoning Mono > and cross-platform compatibility? > > Should Mono's online documentation be updated to > reflect this? > > -- brion vibber (brion @ pobox.com) > > _______________________________________________ > Mono-list maillist - [email protected] > http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list > joe_audette [at] yahoo dotcom http://www.joeaudette.com http://www.mojoportal.com _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
