Hi, I have inherited a VB.net application. The application is currently developed under Visual Studio 2008 and is a GUI using a bunch of Windows Forms. I would like to be able to run this under Linux and it appears I need Mono to do this. In the documentation, I noticed the documentation mention that the "Default Instance" is not supported. This application happens to use this feature in several places.
The way I have seen this done in Java is to have a "getInstance() method which accesses a static copy of the object and creates it the first time getInstance() is called. Would this be a workable mechanism to get the program to run under Mono? It would be a pretty easy change to make. The documentation seems to say that I can run the .exe created by Visual Studio with the Mono Runtime if I can get the libraries correct. I have not been able to do this yet, but I am thinking I need to clean up the default instance issue first. Is this the case?
