Hey, One way or another it seems like on FreeBSD Mono sets STDIN_FILENO to be non-blocking, and so Console.ReadLine() fails, since EAGAIN isn't handled, and the following program simply blows up:
%%% (jmallett@luna:~/Work/Jwpl#)286% mcs test.cs Compilation succeeded (jmallett@luna:~/Work/Jwpl#)287% mono test.exe Unhandled Exception: System.IO.IOException: I/O Error in <0x0007a> 00 System.IO.FileStream:ReadData (intptr,byte[],int,int) in <0x000f2> 00 System.IO.FileStream:Read (byte[],int,int) in <0x00127> 00 System.IO.StreamReader:ReadBuffer () in <0x00088> 00 System.IO.StreamReader:Read () in <0x00049> 00 System.IO.StreamReader:ReadLine () in <0x00018> 00 .X:Main () (jmallett@luna:~/Work/Jwpl#)288% cat test.cs using System; class X { public static void Main() { Console.ReadLine(); } } %%% This doesn't happen on GNU/Linux or with Mono 0.13 on FreeBSD, afaict.
