Hi everyone ! I have problems with System.Drawing It doesn't throw any error but i can't get my code working on Mono It's a code that rotates an image inside a pictureBox derived from : Rimage http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/rimage.asp Can someone help me ? Should i post a bug report ? (i'm new in mono-dev, if i find a solution i will post a patch) Thanks !

Jonathan , I am not sure if IKVM would do . Since I want to compile my project on linux once and for all and be able to deploy to Windows machines by only XCOPY. Johannes, Filehelper looks promising. There are some guys in the forums reporting success with mono however I am not sure if they tried the excel support. I must try this anyway. I will inform you about the results once I did.

[Mono-dev] Compiling mono on embedded platform fails ( structure has no member named uc_regs)
Hello, i'm new to this list cause i have a problem compiling mono on my embedded linux and can't find any useful hints to my problem on the web. I compiled and installed bison, pkg-config and glib 2.4.8 and configured mono successfully.

Does anyone can help me out with that problem? Is it ppc specific? Further, if there is a solution to this problem i got another one: Is it possible to build mono from the sources without having a mono installation? The readme says this should be possible if it's an official release (which 1.2.4 i think is?) and not a snapshot. Problem is: I'm running on a ppc with glibc 2.3.1 and i can't find any binary distribution compiled against it. So do i may run into the chicken egg problem? regards jOe ___ Mono-devel-list mailing list Mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list

The IKVM binaries are cross platform, so you can xcopy deploy them to Windows without any problems. Only if you use JNI do you need the native ikvm-native.dll library on Windows. On Linux libikvm-native.so ships as part of Mono, so there you don't even need to worry about that (and ikvm-native contains only a small amount of code and is designed to work across different versions of ikvm, so when you update your ikvm version, you typically don't need to update ikvm-native.dll).

Re: [Mono-dev] Licensing [WAS: Cross-platform command-lines]
Hi Mirco, NOTE: This is getting somewhat OT, so if it bothers anyone, we can take it outside. :-) Believe me, I know. There have been a few apps that used some of the NUnit code, modifying it and redistributing the assemblies sometimes even with indistinguishable version numbers. That's one reason I'm thinking of licensing changes, BTW. The GPL/LGPL license protects your source code from some things like this. AFAIK there are no other licenses with more strictness regarding source code distribution/usage than the (L)GPL while still being free software, except non-free/non-opensource licenses. I put NUnitLite under OSL, which is a less-used OSI-approved license with copyleft features. There are a few others like that as well. A test framework has the added issue that users must link to some of the assemblies in order to even use it. That makes those assemblies (e.g. nunit.framework) better under LGPL or MIT but everything else can be copyleft to prevent use in non-free testing products - which is my intention. Whatever you change to, please use an OSI approved licenses [0] or at least DSFG [1] complaint licenses (like the Shared Source lincenses from MS are not OSI approved (yet) but still some are DFSG complaint) Definitely. I expect to use one of the OSI licenses that was not deprecated in their effort to reduce license proliferation. A problem to be aware of with MS Shared Source is that it is not a template-style license. Technically, I think that means you create new license when you substitute your own name for Microsoft OTOH, not having a binary package is an issue for some users who are not oriented toward open source. For example, I have a lot of NUnit users, working for a certain large software company here in the NorthWest, who are not permitted to download our source. :-( Not permitted as in by company policy? IMHO using source is not more or less secure (in licensing terms/conditions) than using binaries. Yup. The rationale is that if you saw the source someone might later claim that you reused the code and sue that big company. This is in spite of the fact that NUnit's license permits you to do pretty much anything.

The focus for the next few months will be on * bringing NUnitLite and NUnit syntax in line with one another * getting NUnitLite to work on the compact framework * getting NUnit to run NUnitLite tests * putting out an actual release of NUnitLite * deciding whether to move NUnitLite off of CodePlex The discussion forums on CodePlex have not worked very well - in part because I am more of a mailing list guy than a forum type.
