Thanks for your encouragements ! ;-) Actually, that's exactly what I intended to do when I installed Mono: 1) test my mono installation with basic apps. 2) test running my complex WCF/Winforms client app to see what the "partial WCF implementation" means.
But since the basic HelloWinForms app did not run I thought something was wrong in my Mono framework installation... That's what I want to understand first. Why did the trivial HelloWinForms.exe not run without raising a lot of dll not found exceptions !? Envoyé de mon iPhone Pierre-Francois.
