Hello all. I'm looking into the idea of using Mono as an embedded scripting language for an application my team is working on. Currently, we're using MS.NET v1.1, which is all working great. But, we'd like to look at other options besides MS.NET - plus, not shut the door on cross platform.
We're using VS.NET2003, and would like to keep using it - all our primary development would be on WinXP. My first attempt was to embed Mono, via the tutorial on the Mono site, using the Win32 install. As I didn't have any .libs to link against, I then tried to build Mono from the VS.NET solution from svn. This however doesn't build. after looking thru the makefile, I've used bison to get monoburg going, and monoburg to inssel.c / inssel.h, and genmdesc to get cpu-pentium.h. libmono builds / links after that. however, mono *still* didn't build. I had to edit the VSDependancies\include\config.h file and #define HAVE_BOEHM_GC and #USE_INCLUDED_LIBGC. I was doing that to get rid of the link errors that resulted from not having any GC. i'm finally left with 4 link errors: mono_local_regalloc ref in mono_arch_local_regalloc mono_magic_trampoline ref in mono_arch_create_trampoline_code mono_aot_trampoline ref in mono_arch_create_trampoline_code mono_class_init_trampoline ref in mono_arch_create_trampoline_code also, the Embedded Samples, Libraries, and Tools projects all don't load in that solution - because they seem to have no project associated with them. Anyway, does someone have pointers here? Ideally, I'd like a Win32 solution I can build that will give me Mono .lib files, which I can link against (static or .DLL, static is prolly better) to embed Mono into another native Win32 application. i really, really don't want to use cygwin / gcc. i'm not unix / linux savvy. thx, bruce _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
