I'm using MonoDevelop 2.8.5 and I'm trying to compile a moonlight application, but it fails. I created a brand new Moonlight Application Project and tried to compile it, but it fails with the following error.
Error: Framework 'Moonlight / Silverlight 4.0' not installed. (MoonlightTest)
In this question from October 2011 one of the developers of MonoDevelop states that is not possible to do this without some major hassle.
- Is this still true with the new version(s) of MonoDevelop out?
- If so, how can I compile Moonlight Application Projects in MonoDevelop if I'm willing to go through some hassle?
This is a bit of "psychic debugging" but I've run into it a lot in linux and imagine you might have the same problem happening on OS X. Is the compiler that Monodevelop is looking for exactly the same as the version you installed? It might be something as simple as the folder being called Moonlight1.3 vs Moonlight1.3.1. Look at the build output and see what version it is looking for then look in your applications folder (via terminal the app folder in the finder might hide the info) and check that they are the same.
