records on F# using Xamarin Studio on MacOS: syntax error ?

[FG R]

I am using Xamarin Studio 6.1.2 on MacOS

I just want to define a record type in F# interactive

if I type the following it's ok

type ComplexNumber = { real: float; imaginary: float };;

 type ComplexNumber =
   {real: float;
    imaginary: float;}  

however if i try to do the same definition but written in several lines, i get an error

type ComplexNumber = { 
                       real: float ;
                       imaginary: float ;
                      }
;;
 Unexpected symbol '}' in interaction at 3,22
 parse error at 3,22  

I don't think it's supposed to be this way.

is this a problem with Xamarin Studio, or is my syntax wrong ?

thanks

type A =
  {
     real:float
     imaginary:float
  };;
 type A =
   {real: float;
    imaginary: float;}

This works

thank you, so basically, we don't need the semi columns in F# interactive

however we still need them in the F# source files right ?
