The dataprovider works there, np, since that is a .NET library.

So, you tell us your biases against Visual Studio and Microsoft are set in stone, and then ask for help in porting code .., and, as you get responses from well-intentioned CP members, you respond with one-line negations.

Do you miss the soapbox? What can I do to make you happy again? Shall I call you a crying fanboy?
Then let me tell you that I'm the least fanboiish guy you will ever meet. My way of doing things does not fit very well to their ideas how I should be doing them. Fine, then let's part ways. I'm used to roughing it a little. You can give me a computer without a shred of software and I still can get something done. I actually find that far more interesting than trotting along with the rest of of the herd. Any herd, not just Mickeysoft.
Mickeysoft really is not an option when the whole point is to get away from Mickysoft. That should be so simple that even the most desperate fanboi can't deny.

I've used MonoDevelop with no issues. I don't typically need to port because i don't use winforms.
a winforms app will require a UI rewrite
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

INTIMATE - to be close, or friendly.

Should be "Has no idea what they are doing." Not to sound PC but your sentence implies only men write kittycode.
Just saying.
Congrats, BTW!!!

You are right, it should be "they are" - but "he" is a generic term on the internet which includes both sexes, since you have no idea what the gender or sexual orientation of the other person might be.
Remember "The internet: where men are men, women are men, and fifteen year old girls are FBI agents".

Show me where that is true. Show me where that is acceptable for publishing an official piece, and I will believe you and call it a day.
It's a gender-neutral singular pronoun, in the context of your definition.

"Guys" used to be men only but is now inclusive of women as a term for a group of people.
"He" is going the same way, being accepted as a neutral term, just like:
Actor and Actress - now only Actors
Manager and Manageress - now only Managers
Boyfriend and Girlfriend - now only Tinder Members
.

I can care less for inclusivity for the sake of being politically correct. I was thinking that men AND women can write kitty code, not just men, thus the need for the word "they" instead of just he.
But I see I have made a mountain out of a mole hill...again, so F it.

"They" is plural, not singular.
|
|
|
|
|
Not always, for example:
"I saw this car just plough into the side of that bus! They didn't even slow down going through the red light!"
A single (singular) car hit the bus!
"They" can often be used interchangeably with "it", "he" and "she" in modern English.

No use quoting incorrect usage.

I'm sorry but since you appear to be a USian, presumably educated in the US, you clearly lack sufficient knowledge of correct usage to offer any valid opinion. 
I'm British. We invented the language!

I'm sure that they are plenty of folk in the UK who also misuse much of their language.

Tsk tsk! Lady programmers never write kittycode, and its sexist of you to suggest that they might, therefore 'he' is quite correct. 
Besides, if they did, it would be a different synonym ...
