c# code generation is wrong

[bturner1273]

This is flatbuffer (master) running in .net. The code generated by 'flatc --csharp filename.fbs' calls builder.StartObject instead of builder.StartTable causing the code to error out.

please switch to builder.StartTable for code generation

Also if you wanna make a nuget package I think the world would be a happier place

Are you sure your flatc and your runtime code come from the same repo? It sounds like you have a version mismatch.

Which indicates exactly the problem with packages: unless flatc can somehow come with the package, it would encourage even more of these version mismatches. The correct way to use FlatBuffers is to ensure all comes from the same repo.

That said, I don't mind supporting nuget. Related: #5620, #4162, #3753

I encountered an issue, too. I solved it by building flatc from source. Whatever is in v1.11.0 isn't working well in C#. I think cutting a new release and pushing a new version of flatc.exe from head would fix the problem. Haven't verified but that's my recollection from encountering a similar issue many months ago.

Update: The issue I encountered is reported in #5620

A new release is forthcoming, but you should never rely on mixing different versions, whether release or not.
