NCurses and Monodevelop Error?

[etdsbastar]

Hello friends,

I am using a .NET program via MonoDevelop and I am getting the following errors (see the screenshot)

Secondly, the code is also showing NCurses error. Also try to rectify that.

Please Help.

Below is the code:


using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
/* using System.Xml; */
using System.Collections;
using System.IO;
namespace GUI
{
class ConsoleUI
{
public NCurses cur = new NCurses();
public IntPtr stdscr = new IntPtr();

static void Main(string[] args)
{
ConsoleUI m = new ConsoleUI();
m.stdscr = m.cur.InitScreen();
int gTWidth = m.cur.GetMaxX();
int gTHeight = m.cur.GetMaxY();
int halfX = gTWidth >> 1;
int halfY = gTHeight >> 1;

m.cur.WClear(m.stdscr);
m.cur.Refresh();
MenuMain mnu = new MenuMain();
mnu.StartMenu(m.cur, m.stdscr);

m.cur.SetCBreak(true);

m.cur.Refresh();
m.cur.GetCh();
m.cur.SetEcho(true);

m.cur.EndWin();

// XMLLayOut x = new XMLLayOut();
// ArrayList menus = x.ReadSubMenuXML();
}

have you added the curses bindings as assembly reference to the project ?
(project->edit references)

I couldn't find anything like that in references. Will you please tell me any PPA or any package where I can find curses bindings. While browsing the net I found MonoCurses, but I don't know where to download it.

it does not seem packaged yet (also not in the gac according to the page), you'll probably have to build it yourself
