Error in Porting c# winform application to RaspberryPi using Mono Compiler

Question

I am trying to run a windows form application developed on visual studio 2012 and C# on my raspberry pi using mono compiler. But i get the following error.

    System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 
   'System.Data.SqlServerCe

The database file is also included in the same folder from where my .exe runs. How can I resolve this error?

Answer 1

Seems you can't do that. You're missing the Sql Server compact dll, and as stated here , it's a native library and cannot be used with mono.

I think you will have to convert db/queries in something which is compatible with linux environment like SQLite here or similar. Check also this from the raspberry forums
