Using dmcs directly, if I want to reference an assembly I can pass it in via the -r option, ala:

dmcs -r:System.Xml.Linq.dll whatever.cs

manos de mono uses its own build system on top of dmcs, how do I pass in such references? Seems like it should be easy/obvious but I haven't found any documentation on it so I'm asking here prior to ripping through the manos code.

Firstly, Manos automatically references all .dlls found in the directory the .cs files are (unless you use .sln or makefile, that is).

Secondly, I don't think additional reference to System.Xml.Linq.dll is needed, AFAIR it should be visible to manos -b thanks to correct mono installation present "in the OS" -- so if the example reflects what you're doing literally, I would suspect the problem lies somewhere outside Manos build system. I may be right or wrong saying the latter, but either way, given no further details I'd say both:

  • repairing the "external" problem, or
  • copying System.Xml.Linq.dll to the build directory

should help, and copying is definitely less cumbersome on the short term ;)
