Requirements not quite up to date

Postby ptokremin » Wed Jul 09, 2014 10:51 am

Hello everyone,

and greetings from Germany. I've passed Cobra a few times and finally decided to give it a try. I've already found some things I really like, and a few minor nuisance as well.
Not sure if this should be a ticket...

problem:
When I build from source (SVN:3116) the snapshot\cobra.exe crashes with the following exception (translated from german):
System.MissingMethodException: method not found: "Int32 System.Environment.get_CurrentManagedThreadId()"."

My build environment had only .NET 4.0 installed, but the property CurrentManagedThreadId is only available for .NET 4.5 or later. Upgrading to 4.5 solved the problem.

suggested solution:
Could it be possible to update the listed "Requirements" under "HowToInstallFromSource"?
"Microsoft .NET 2.0 and up" is a little misleading.


pre-build-environment (e.g. snapshot\cobra.exe):
Cobra svn:3079 (post 0.9.5) / 2013-12-23 on .NET CLR v4.0.30319 on Microsoft Windows NT 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1

post-build-environment:
Cobra svn:3116 (post 0.9.6) / 2014-07-09 on .NET CLR v4.0.30319 on Microsoft Windows NT 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1
