Xamarin Studio, GTK 2.0 C# application, runtime er

Question

I've installed fresh Xamarin Studio 5.10 on Windows 7 and created standard GTK 2.0 C# project (via New Project > .Net > GTK#2.0 Project).

Code's below:

using System;
using Gtk;

namespace _test
{
    class MainClass
    {
        public static void Main (string[] args)
        {
            Application.Init ();
            MainWindow win = new MainWindow ();
            win.Show ();
            Application.Run ();
        }
    }
}

Build is ok, but runtime error raises (I've translated error from my native language into english):

Can't load DLL "libglib-2.0-0.dll": Procedure was not found (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007F)

Mono and gtk# seems to be installed ok via exes from official mono site. Test console app works ok.

May anybody help :) ?

Answer 1

I had this problem in the following setup:

• Windows Server 2012
• Gtk# for .Net 2.12.38
• Mono for Windows (x64) 4.3.2
• Xamarin Studio 5.10.1

I replaced Gtk# for .Net 2.12.38 with Gtk# for .Net 2.12.30 which solved my problem.

Answer 2

You need to reboot. I just had the same problem and that was the solution.

Answer 3

I had the same problem as the discussion topic points too, but I found the solution.

You might not select the .NET Runtimes as the Mono. You can see what .NET Runtimes is selected in Tools - Options - Projects - .NET Runtimes. There you can change the .NET Runtimes.

If you find only Microsoft.NET, you should get latest Mono at mono-project.com and install it. You will be able to select Mono Runtime.
