One of the native functions Etc.rb calls is getpwnam. The mono equivalent seems to be http://www.go-mono.com/docs/index.aspx?link=M%3aMono.Posix.Syscall.getusername(System.Int32)

It would actually be better not to use FFI whenever possible. Native code interop is platform specific and thus would require us to maintain multiple implementations. If there is a managed API in Mono that does what we need we should use it.

I don’t think we have time to do FFI for our 1.0, but it would be useful to have it implemented soon after ☺ JD From: ironruby-core-boun...@rubyforge.org [mailto:ironruby-core-boun...@rubyforge.org] On Behalf Of Ryan Riley Sent: Thursday, February 25, 2010 1:28 PM To: ironruby-core@rubyforge.org Subject: Re: [Ironruby-core] Anyone interested in implementing Etc module for Mono? I can try it next week once I have my machine set up again. I'm unable to try it until then, unfortunately. Also, I noticed that JRuby is sharing the same implementation (or similar), but both are based on FFI, not straight up Ruby. Has anyone started working on an IronRuby FFI impl? If not, would it be better to start working on this and get Etc working with FFI?

It should be fairly easy to implement Etc.rb as pure Ruby code using the File functionality. The spec for Etc is at http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/etc/rdoc/classes/Etc.html. RubyGems just seems to need Etc.getpwuid. Anyone interested in tackling this problem?
