I am trying to run a simple "Hello World" WinForms app on Mac OS X using mono
1.2.6, but I get a TypeInitializationException from (or regarding?)
libgdiplus.dylib. I suspect libgdiplus.dylib might be trying to using X11
(which I do not have installed), even though I thought mono 1.2.6's WinForms no
longer required X11 on Mac OS X.
I tried using macpack ("macpack -m:1 -n:helloworld -o:. -a:helloworld.exe"),
but I still get the same TypeInitializationException when running macpack's
helloworld.app (according to Mac OS X's Console utility).
If I run "MONO_LOG_LEVEL=info MONO_LOG_MASK=dll mono helloworld.exe", I get
tons of DllImport errors/warnings about mono searching for libgdiplus.dylib .
When mono finds libgdiplus.dylib, it then reports suspicious errors about X11:
Mono-INFO: DllImport loading:
'/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/1.2.6/lib
/libgdiplus.dylib'.
Mono-INFO: DllImport error loading library
'dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/1.2.6/lib/libgdiplus.dylib,
9): Library not loaded: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXrender.1.dylib
Referenced from:
/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/1.2.6/lib/libgdiplus.dylib
Reason: image not found'.
Any idea what I am doing wrong? Do I need still X11 to run WinForm apps on Mac
OS X? Or do I have a lib path problem with mono or macpack? I've seen similar
libgdiplus problems by Linux users on this mailing list, but I don't know if
they are related to my Mac OS X woes.
thanks!
