C# in .NET [System.Windows.Forms]

[Thund3rstruck]

Hi guys,

I finally decided to start porting over some of my enterprise C#.net applications to Linux recently and I was quite disappointed to learn that there is no System.Windows.Forms.* namespace or classes available.

I have been tooling around with GTK# but I'm having difficulties using it since the controls are named differently (where is listBox, ListView, TreeView, etc??).

Can someone recommend a good msdn-style reference for GTK# (with code samples for each method)?

Additionally, is there an IDE I can use where I can draw the controls on the forms automatically (Visual Studio style) instead of having to tediously tell the controls exactly where on the form the need to be drawn manually? MonoDevelop doesn't seem to have a graphical forms editor.

I thought mono had Windows.Forms compatibility

EDIT: or at least may have it soon

System.Windows.Forms is not available in the version in the repos (v0.10), perhaps I will look at the dev version.

Any suggestions on a code resource like msdn for GTK#? Also, I wonder why Intellisense doesn't work for GTK libraries like it does for .NET FCL libs?
