Discussion Forum > Book sample: MicroFrameworkFlashlight won't compile
Hello - I'm having a newbie problem with the 1st sample in from the book. I'm hoping someone can help...
I've installed the SP1 framework w/VS 2005 & copied the code from the 1st example -- a very basic flashlight, but it won't compile. The class libraries "Microsoft.SPOT", etc. are recognized by Intellisense and the project->References has a reference to Microsoft.SPOT.Native
Upon attempting to build the VS complains with the typical error when it can't find a something: "The type or namespace name 'OutputPort' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)"
Since the class libraries are detected by intellisense and the Reference looks OK, I don't understand why this won't compile.
