[RESOLVED] C# conversion shows "system" error

Ok -- me again -- getting my head back into this (possible) vb.net to linux
process.

Alright, so I have Sharp develop installed and it loaded my VB project file fine.

Also, it converted it to C# in a flash -- couldn't be simpler, just do it from a pull down menu and click -- it even creates a myprojectconverted folder.

So then, I ran my program with sharp develop, just like I would with visual studio (run compiled exe) -- everything hunky dory.

I then opened my "converted" folder and opened the C# project -- it's all there, very cool -- can see the code differences in the Form1.cs

BUT --

getting errors that relate to the "system" namespace when I try to run
the C# version.

the errors are showing up on 2 lines --

using system; (no error on this line)
using.system.IO
using.system.IO.ports

the VB version, like I say is fine --

imports.system
imports.system.io
imports.system.io.ports

Please educate me on this one.

Thanks.

something to do with serialport differences in vb.net and c#.net ?

There should be no dots between "using" and rest part of it.

e.g.

Code:

---

using system; 
using system.IO;
using system.IO.ports;

Yeah -- my mistake -- I put that in the post, they're not really in there.

Not familiar with C# but it looks like this may be a simple syntax thing.

I'll look closer and get back.

THANKS !

Actually getting help on this in another post folks.
