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?

Was it helpful?

Solution

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.
