Question

I am having trouble compiling my CSharp Mono application.

My Mono Version is 2.10.2

This is the error I am receiving

Missing method .ctor in assembly /home/tmc/AcctTerm/System.dll, type System.Runtime.CompilerServices.ReferenceAssemblyAttribute
Can’t find custom attr constructor image: /home/tmc/AcctTerm/System.dll mtoken: 0x0a000054

Unhandled Exception: System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type ‘System.Runtime.CompilerServices.ReferenceAssemblyAttribute’ from assembly ‘System’.
at conAccountTerminator.cjcAccountTerminator..ctor () [0x00000] in :0
at conAccountTerminator.MainClass.Main (System.String[] args) [0x00000] in :0

Any ideas?

ReferenceAssemblyAttribute is a recent attribute, first seen in FX 4.0.

Please ensure you’re using Mono 'dmcs compiler (or mcs with -sdk=4) to ensure you’re linking with a version of mscorlib.dll (4.0) that has the attribute present.
