Re: Cannot install Visual Studio

Visual Studio Code is a simple text editor, not a compiler.

Install The Mono Project and MonoDevelop, and build your programs there. It's designed for Linux.

You can even create cross-platform GUI apps using Gtk# instead of the cancerous Windows-only Windows Forms.

Stop using Wine.

What are you even trying to do? You can't run Windows-only software like Visual Studio on Linux.

But there are no Mono lessons!

Re: Cannot install Visual Studio

Mono is the .NET framework, to run C# software. MonoDevelop is the compiler, like Visual Studio.

To create your first solution, go to File - New Project.

Then you'll see it's exactly the same as any other compiler, as Visual Studio.

You write the code, build the code, run the code.

Now that I've read you were trying to install Visual Studio Code, I want to tell you that VS Code is a simple text editor, not a compiler. You can also try Atom

File > New > File (?)

File > New > File (?)

File > New > Solution (or File > New > Project).

Or you can simply click "Start new solution" in the "Welcome" tab you are on when you open the program.

So a compiler is better then a text editor? So Mono is better then VS?

Re: Cannot install Visual Studio

You're supposed to get a window like this:

On newest versions the solution type window is like this:

Well, try pressing New (or course add the Name) and let's see what you get.

What's your MonoDevelop version? It looks out-dated.

The program you downloaded is Visual Studio Code, a hack-able text editor. Visual Studio 2015, and Visual Studio 2010 Express, are perfect examples of compilers. Again, Mono is the .NET Framework. MonoDevelop is the compiler.
In my opinion, MonoDevelop is better than Visual Studio, but that is not going to answer your question since you were referring to VS as a text editor, when I refer to the compilers.

How to check the version of Mono?

And I also have these two Options, after going to 'Empty Project':

Re: Cannot install Visual Studio

You are finally on the correct area.

Gtk# support should be enabled by default. Try enabling it.

There's no need for Unix Integration.

Re: Cannot install Visual Studio

Press View and enable the Solution Explorer. If there's no option to it, then your version of MD seems to be ****** up.

View > Solution - is enabled. Or is it the wrong?

Re: Cannot install Visual Studio

Then to be honest I don't know what's going on. I've never worked with old versions of MonoDevelop like that.

I recommend you to install the latest MonoDevelop version for Linux on their website: http://www.monodevelop.com/download/lin … deprecated

Re: Cannot install Visual Studio

Assuming Ubuntu 13.04 and later, use these commands:

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EF
echo "deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list
sudo apt-get update

Re: Cannot install Visual Studio

You can use them when you want. It'll install Mono and MD from Mono servers, not from Ubuntu Servers.

TIP: Get a newer version of (K)Ubuntu. Try 16.04 LTS.

Re: Cannot install Visual Studio

Still very old. The only good thing of it it's that it's LTS (Long Time Support). But it still has a lot of out-dated packages. Ubuntu 16.04 is also LTS.

It's all about personal preference anyways.

Also you already have console and GTK options. What else do you need?

You don't need to follow any C# tutorials or how to use MonoDevelope.
Start with bot tutorials and copy and paste and you should become a good bot creator.
