It would help if you provided some code, but I believe that you're
missing the type parameter, e.g. you're doing:

        var list = new System.Collections.Generic.List ();

List<T> is a generic type; the generic parameter is required.  (There
are no "raw types" like Java 5 has.)  Thus, if this is the case, you
need to provide an actual parameter type, e.g.

        var list = new System.Collections.Generic.List<int> ();
