'The type or namespace name could not be found'

Hey all,

I have a bit of a problem which I’ve just starred myself blind at.

First of all, don’t make too much of the silly names in my current scripts and DLLs :stuck_out_tongue: It is simply a quick demo to explain what is wrong.

Anyways,

I’ve compiled my own DLL from MonoDevelop with one simple class in it. The class is called MyClass I’ve placed the class in a namespace called mao. In the MonoDevelop assembly browser, you can see the structure clearly:

5263-assemblybrowsermao.png
5263-assemblybrowsermao.png901×285 40.4 KB

Now the problem is that when I then reference this namespace from within the lol.cs script like this:

using mao;

using mao;
I can easily compile the code from within MonoDevelop and no error is raised at all.

But when I hit the play test button from the unity editor I am presented with the following error:

Assets/Scripts/lol.cs(3,7): error CS0246: The type or namespace name `mao’ could not be found. Are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?

And I have no clue as to why this is happening.

Any help or tip would be appriciated :slight_smile:

Thank you for your time! :slight_smile:

Is the built assembly(dll) in the plugin folder in the inspector?
