Cannot make a MySQL connection in windows mobile 6 c#

Question

I try to run this simple code and i get this error: The type 'System.Data.Common.DbConnection' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly

using MySql.Data.MySqlClient;
MySqlConnection conn = new MySqlConnection("server info");

The error highlights "MySqlConnection"

Ive added the reference to the DLL

Any Idea's?

Answer 1

The MySQL connector for windows mobile is installed with standard MySQL connectiors for .NET

C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Connector Net 6.5.5\Assemblies\v2.0

You have to add a reference to MySql.Data.CF.dll to your project to use MySQL connector.
