I’m experimenting for the first time, the Mono framework to develop applications to Android.
I have installed Mono for Mac 2.10.2, MonoDevelop 2.6 Beta 3 and the trial version of MonoDroid.
I followed the tutorial for HelloWorld, however I’m having troubles when trying to deploy the application to the emulator.
I click ‘Debug’, and the ‘Select Device’ window appears. It shows me my AVD images, and on the bottom of each one it says ‘not started’. I select the AVD I want, I click on ‘Start Emulator’ and the emulator starts. The problem is that it never refreshes to state that the emulator is now running and that I can now deploy the app to it.
If I click ‘refresh’ the list becomes empty.
Anyone can help me out? Is it something I’m doing wrong or is it a bug of MonoDevelop?
Thanks for your patience 😉
Mono 2.10.2 has a bug that prevents MonoDevelop communicating with Android devices. Downgrade to Mono 2.10.1.
