SharpDevelop VB.Net question

[taximania]

I can develop libraries using SharpDevelop in c#

If I try to use vb.net in sharpdevelop, my libraries compile, but always throw an error on adding component to device.
File or assembly name Microsoft.VisualBasic bla bla bla was not found.

What file? do I need and where to put it ?

my libraries compile, but always throw an error on adding component to device

Does it throw the error on actually adding the library as a component with Tools -> Components -> ... or when you try to compile for the device?

I would see if the VB version of the example Basic4ppc library will compile and run. If it does then check the differences with your project, if it doesn't post what bla bla bla actually is then we can see which library it wants and try to guess why.

Why bother with VB when you can use C#

I write dll's, or try to on my laptop.
I copy the dll's to my device to test them.
It's very rare I use Basic4ppc desktop for compile to device.
I just use source files on my device.
I can't be bothered to write desktop dll's needed for compile.
I only do it if I think the dll is worth sharing.

So the error I'm on about is when I try to add a dll to a device source using, 'Add component' that's written in vb.

Microsoft.VisualBasic, Version=8.0.0.0,PublicKeyToken=B03F5F7F11D50A3A

The reason i'm trying vb is cos I can't get c# to do what I want :BangHead:
And the only examples I've found are in vb.
Don't beat yourself up Agraham. I've only been after reading an email body on a device for the last month :sign0148:

I'll get there. One day

That's the desktop version of Microsoft.VisualBasic so it won't be present on the device. If you really need to reference it you need to reference the device version in your project.
