The type or namespace name 'Objects' does not exist in the namespace 'System.Data'

Question

I'm using MonoDevelop on Mac OS X Snow Leopard to develop an ASP.NET MVC Application. I have tested it on Visual Studio 2008 on Windows 7 and it worked fine, but when compiling it on MonoDevelop it throws the error: The type or namespace name 'Objects' does not exist in the namespace 'System.Data' under this line: public partial class MoviesDBEntities : global::System.Data.Objects.ObjectContext

I'm not sure what the EXACT problem here is but I'm assuming I'm missing something from what the error is saying. How do I rectify this? Thanks.

The problem is that there's not yet an implementation of the Entity Framework for Mono. Maybe some day. Currently there's no chance you compile this under Mono.
