Problems with Mono & SFML.Net (Ubuntu)

[chilliboy999]

Hey guys,
first of all, i read many topics in this forum & googled a lot about how to get
Mono and SFML.Net running.
But the only half-working solution is about installing csfml-1.6-libs via
apt-get and using them. But I want to use SFML.Net 2.x.

I have Ubuntu 12.04, Mono 2.10.8.1 & MonoDevelop 2.8.6.3.

The steps I took:
After installing Mono & MonoDevelop, I opend a new Project and added the sfmlnet-graphics-2.dll
to my references.

Afterwards I was able to use the SFML commands in MonoDevelop. I also copied the csfml-graphics-2.dll
in the same folder where my prog.exe was.

Then I created a prog.exe.config/csfml-graphics-2.dll.config file and wrote the following in it:

<configuration>
<dllmap dll="csfml-graphics-2.dll" target="libcsfml-graphics-2.so.2" />
</configuration>

After that I added this file to my Project like this:


Now I wanted to compile my project, but I got a DllNotFoundException: "csfml-graphics-2 not found"

Does anybody know how to get thes dll's running with mono on linux?

Is CSFML 2 installed?

If i search for csfml in the ubuntu softwarecenter I only find libcsfml-1.6 :/

So because you can't easily install it, it should magically work without you doing anything?

No, you must have CSFML 2 installed for SFML.Net to work (and SFML for CSFML to work). Either compile it from sources, or download the prebuilt package from the website.

So you're going to work on that? Awesome! Really glad you use your influence over distro makers to make them pack SFML.
C# binding is missing from packages in Fedora too. Do something about that too while you're at it.
Also, I'd like a brainfuck binding...

Ok, sarcasm aside, it's time to go Linus on OP:

Then go bitch to fucking Canonical for not packaging it or learn to solve your own problems(hint: cmake + git + reading skills), we can't(and most of us don't want/care anyway) do shit about them not packaging it.

Hey!
No reason to become unpolite.
Not everyone is an expert.
And this is a forum for people to ask questions.
You also learned by asking questions (hint: you would be a bad teacher)

So, I said what I needed to say.
Now thank you for your advice (cmake+git+reading skills)
