I'm pretty much a linux and mono newbie, though I have done a couple of small console and web apps in C# on Windows using VS.NET.
Now that I've managed to get Mono 1.1.6 compiled and installed on my brand new Ubuntu Hoary installation, I'm excited to begin writing some apps. Which development environments do people who develop for Mono on Linux use? I did have a pretty hard time getting the Mono core, xsp, and Monodoc installed (like I said, I'm a newbie--but learning fast). I'm a little spooked by the thought of installing Monodevelop and some of its dependencies from svn, but I'm wiiling to give it a go if Monodevelop 0.6 is really useable to get real work done. Is that the case? What other IDE's or environments are people using to get work done using Mono? I've used Eclipse a bit a while back and quite liked it. Is it useable for development work with Improve's C# plug-in? Do the refactoring tools work for C#? I know I should probably just take the plunge and try these things out for myself (I did do a fair bit of Googling and searching of list archives before posting this, but didn't get a lot of useful information about this specific question) but time is really at a premium for me right now and it would be really useful to me (and others, I'm sure) to hear the opinions of those who are already getting work done for Mono about their working development environments. I do use gvim on Windows as my editor of choice, so I can certainly just use that and mcs at the command line if that's all that really works--just hoping to get some advice on what really works that's a little more sophisticated. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
