As Ales Pour already mentioned, this is incorrect. IIS is not needed. For example, mod_mono and xsp.exe are two separate ASP.NET hosting environments developed by Mono. (xsp.exe was the original test container, useful for testing, and mod_mono is an Apache module for hosting ASP.NET.) > In developing AXIS C#, we hope to use the WSDL parser in > System.Web.Services namespace and the XML Pull parser in System.Xml > namespace (already implemented in MONO).

You can create AppDomains, and run code in them, but unloading them...tends to break things. Zoltan added a patch to ignore AppDomain.Unload() when the MONO_NO_UNLOAD environment variable is set on March 24, so that existing code (NAnt) would continue to function properly until the underlying AppDomain issues were resolved. I don't think this made it into 0.31, though. So, until the bugs are fixed (which is until the next release, *at least*), avoid AppDomain.Unload(). :-) <snip/> - Jon _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
