Hi!

We currently developed a POS system under .Net 4.5. I would like to explore
the possibility of migrating it to linux. How hard will it be if we will use
mono to run it to linux?
Depends on complexity of your app and APIs used (assemblies).

Few years ago MoMA would tell you a lot:

http://www.mono-project.com/docs/tools+libraries/tools/moma/
https://github.com/mono/moma

but today is outdated.

Generally if you have lasagne (layered) architecture (project structure) with separate DLLs for business-logic/domain-logic try compiling those projects on desktop mono with recent Xamarin Studio or MonoDevelop.

UI layer will probably need to be rewritten in GTK#. This might be the "hardest" part - learning new UI toolkit.

Data would be similar story, but slightly less difficult.

There is ongoing effort in merging Microsoft's reference source into mono, but it still not over (yet), so there are some differences and w/o more info about your app there is not much to say.

thanks

regards

Mel


Thanks
