Re: [Mono-list] Porting Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms to Mono?
Yes, GTK# is a thin C# wrapper over the C library, the API is pretty much exactly the same except with C#-ified names. The only gotcha is that the GTK# 2 API is frozen at GTK+ 2.12 - though of course you can P/Invoke into newer API pretty easily, like we do for MonoDevelop. There's a GTK# 3, which is a wrapper over GTK+ 3.x, but it hasn't yet had a stable release AFAIK. - M On 5 March 2014 18:48, Michael McGlothlin mike.mcgloth...@gmail.com wrote: I've used Gtk under Linux so I'd guess Gtk# might be similar?

In the long run it feels to me like Gtk# is easier to use MVC techniques on than WinForms so if you have the time to learn the Gtk# API I recommend it very highly for cross platform development.

Re: [Mono-dev] sub-process invocation on posix
FWIW, you actually just need to double quote each argument and escape
double quotes so you can very easily write a helper to do this in a way
that works on both Mono and .NET:
static Process StartProcess (string name, params string[] args)
{
string a = null;
if (args != null args.Length 0)
a = \ + string.Join (args.Select (s = s.Replace (\,
\\\)).ToArray (), \ \) + \;
return Process.Start (
new ProcessStartInfo (name, a) {
ShellExecute = false,
}
);
}
Obviously this could be done more efficiently with a StringBuilder.
Apologies for any errors, I'm writing this on my phone...

On Thu, Mar 17, 2011 at 12:35 PM, Abdul Rauf raufb...@gmail.com wrote: Dear Team Mono, I am very excited to contribute in open source community through the platform of Google Summer of Code 2011. I have visited the web page of “Mono” at http://mono-project.com/Gsoc and have seen project ideas for GSoC 2011. I am interested in two projects. The reason for my interest is that I have previously worked on .NET related projects both in VB and C# and want to develop skills of IDE development. I am writing you to let you know my understanding of the project and required knowledge of technologies. I would like your feedback on it. My understanding of the requirements is as follows: “Debugger Visualizer” 1. Implement a debugger visualizer (Can “Debugger Visualizer” template from .NET framework be used?) There is no debugger visualizer infrastructure in .NET, only VS, and MD doesn't implement the VS API. MD has its own visualizer infrastructure. 2. A DataType assembly will be loaded into the debugger visualizer at runtime and display the desired properties in a presentable form. That sounds like more like the DebuggerTypeProxy. That's also a possible GSoC project, but would have to take place in the Mono framework, not the MonoDevelop IDE. 3. I need to specify which visualizers are to be implemented. Yes, this is only an idea for a GSoC project. You would have to define a project that is big enough for the GSoC period, and it can consist of several smaller tasks, such as a number of different visualizers, or you could find other debugger enhancements and combine them into the project. You'd need to describe what visualizers you want to create, explain why they're useful, and so on. “Translation Resources Editor” 1. Implement an editor for different language resources to help people edit resources files without modifying XML files directly. 2. The program should load strings from .resx file and provide an interface to enter the required translations. Also, it says Should extend or share code with the Gettext addin. I am not quite sure about this at the moment. Does it mean that this Resource Editor is required to be integrated with Gettext? Any help is appreciated in this regard. MonoDevelop already has a Translation addin, which has a GUI for editing Gettext translation catalogs. The idea here is that the resx translation editor would be able to re-use some of the code (particularly some of the GUI) from the Gettext addin. -- Michael Hutchinson http://mjhutchinson.com ___ Mono-devel-list mailing list Mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list

I want to get skills in IDE programming and to familiarize with basics of code parsing and automation of documentation processing. What is final result should look like (this is only my point of view and I likely discuss it): it will be the interractive pad, that will show the part of documentation for the current (under or nearest to the text cursor) part of code and provide basic text editing features and maybe feature of template generating document for the current part of code if it hasn`t documentation yet. Yes, there are a bunch of different ideas in this area. The project is essentially to improve MD's support for documentation. As it is, there are two kinds of documentation: * inline XML doc comments * MonoDoc files MD supports XML doc comments pretty well, though it could be improved. However, MD has no support for creating or editing MonoDoc documentation. So the project could consist of any combination of the following: * a documentation project type, for creating and compiling MonoDoc docs * the pad you mentioned, for editing MonoDoc docs * nicer editing support for XML doc comments * a pad for displaying and browsing docs, regardless of source * some integration/unification between MonoDoc and XML docs Rough workplan: * Observe MonoDoc and MonoDevelop parsing interfaces, maybe fix some bugs (5-7 days) * Observe MonoDevelop addin architectures and design general Documentation Addin architecture (7-12 days) * Coding * Tests and bugfix (18 days) * Prepare Documentation (5 days) FWIW, I'm wary of any project proposal that begins with periods of planning/design/research - ideally, such stuff should be done when creating the proposal, so we have a good idea of what you'll be doing. -- Michael Hutchinson http://mjhutchinson.com ___ Mono-devel-list mailing list Mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list

It would be particularly interesting to add full support for the local mappings that pdb has for nested scopes and iterator scopes, and propagate that information into the soft debugger, since Mono's mdb format doesn't currently support those. That would help to fix a few problems we have right now in the debugger - inspecting captured variables in anonymous delegates and iterators, and inspecting multiple variables with the same name in sub-scopes of a single method. We could then either propagate those features back into the mdb format, or switch to pdb entirely. -- Michael Hutchinson http://mjhutchinson.com ___ Mono-devel-list mailing list Mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list

What is the best way to choose the right application data folder? ~/.config is the correct folder for modern apps that follow the XDG spec.

the problem comes if i want to pipe something
generally using the shell i would do
#cat testfile.txt | grep word (i know i can do grep word testfile.txt,
but it's just for example)
is there a way to use the pipe with forked processes? couse i can't pass
it as an argument for my program couse it wont work.
Piping simply feeds the standard output of one process to the standard
input of another. You could do this in C# by using
Process.StandardInput.
Alternatively, you could run a shell command using sh:
StartProcess(sh, -c 'cat testfile.txt | grep word' );
Best solution IMO would just be to use .NET APIs, unless the shell
commands are doing particularly complex thing:
var txt = File.ReadAllText (testfile.txt);
var matches = Regex.Matches (txt, word);

It's likely better also for the original purpose when, for example, even if dynamic linking is not possible it is possible to lookup a symbol at runtime. It opens up the possibility of also generating the code at runtime (for redirecting some win32 p/invokes to winforms for example, or other tricks). Something along these lines: typedef void* (*MonoDlFallbackLoad) (const char *name, int flags, char **err, void *user_data); typedef void* (*MonoDlFallbackSymbol) (void *handle, const char *name, char **err, void *user_data); typedef void* (*MonoDlFallbackClose) (void *handle, void *user_data); void mono_dl_register_fallback (MonoDlFallbackLoad load_func, MonoDlFallbackSymbol symbol_func, MonoDlFallbackClose close_func, void *user_data); The old interface could be easily implemented on top of this new one (though we likely could drop it as well). That's certainly more flexible, but I'm not convinced it's necessary at this time without concrete use cases. If we're going to include the old interface anyway - else we make embedders responsible for reimplementing its functionality - then why not go this path for now, and reimplement it on top of the callbacks later? The tricks you mention could be much more useful if callbacks could intercept lookups for individual symbols, rather than acting as a fallback for handling whole libraries. But this would require much more substantial changes to the dynamic linker code. -- Michael Hutchinson http://mjhutchinson.com ___ Mono-devel-list mailing list Mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list

What backward compatibility bugs do you know of? And for some reason I am still missing the point. Mono going to 4.0 just means dmcs is available. Well, as of 2.4.4, gmcs is available but now mcs is _not_ available in the standard distribution. I infer from that, that once dmcs becomes available, gmcs will likewise stop being available in the standard distribution. Is that not the case? I.e. is there going to be a change of policy in this regard? If so, that would be an adequate solution. No, mcs has been included in *all* released versions of Mono to date. It will only be removed in 2.8, about 5-6 years after the addition of gmcs. I suspect your problem is the fact that Debian/Ubuntu breaks up Mono into many tiny packages in order to minimize install size of applications for end-users, and this unfortunately means that developers often don't find things that they'd expect to be in a normal Mono installation.

I guess MonoDevelop should not provide completion for extension methods when System.Core is not referenced. MD should also reference System.Core by default in new 3.5+ projects. Please file bugs. Arguably gmcs should give a better error message too, so please file a separate bug against gmcs for that.

If you have extension methods in one assembly and then use those extension methods in another, if you do not reference System.Core then the compiler can't find those methods. I think the big problem is it's hard to diagnose. MonoDevelop will happily offer code-completion for those extension methods. However, when you compile, it fails. Unfortunately the error info doesn't give you any sort of clue that it's a missing System.Core reference and *NOT* a missing method. VS.NET will happily offer code-completion *and* compile. Example of an error message: Messenger.cs(34,34): Error CS1061: Type `Dimebrain.TweetSharp.Fluent.IFluentTwitter' does not contain a definition for `AuthenticateAs' and no extension method `AuthenticateAs' of type `Dimebrain.TweetSharp.Fluent.IFluentTwitter' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) (CS1061) (Infrastructure) The last part - are you missing a using directive [...] - is misleading because that makes me think I need to add a reference to TweetSharp. But what it really needs is the System.Core reference. Hope that's useful.

Re: [Mono-dev] Advice on porting Windows app
On Thu, Feb 4, 2010 at 1:19 PM, Peter Shoebridge pe...@blueyondergaming.com wrote: I want to port our gaming client to Linux and would like to solicit possible approaches. The client consists of several separate applications, the first, is a background executable (with no UI) that starts and communicates with several others. This one should not pose any issues, other than it does have some code to communicate with some serial and usb peripherals. The UI apps are written for Silverlight 2.0 and hosted within a web browser control within windows forms applications. The silverlight UI code communicates with the host windows forms app using the ObjectForScripting method of the web browser control and calling javascript from the SL code. How would I best implement this feature in Mono and Moonlight? Basically, I need to host the Moonlight application which needs to perform some operations on the application, such as resize the window, change it to top most etc. which obviously can't be performed from the Moonlight environment directly. I want to avoid opening a socket as there are limited ports available and I am already using some of them. I believe Moonlight can be used out-of-browser in full trust with access to all framework APIs. You could also use the GTK# Moonlight widget to embed your GUI in a GTK window directly. -- Michael Hutchinson http://mjhutchinson.com ___ Mono-devel-list mailing list Mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list
Re: [Mono-list] MonoDevelop 2.2 on OS/X problems
On Sun, Jan 3, 2010 at 5:47 PM, Mike Christensen m...@kitchenpc.com wrote: I just got around to installing MonoDevelop 2.2 and Mono 2.6 (Both using the Disk Images) and am having several problems with web applications. 1) Running with soft debugger usually does not work. One of three things happens (at random): The web browser is never launched but the application appears to be running (If I open a browser and navigate to localhost, I just get a DNS error so looks like xsp isn't running), or; the web browser launches and tries to navigate to 127.0.0.1:8080, but after 10 minutes still no response, or; MonoDevelop freezes with the wait cursor and I have to Force Quit after several minutes. 2) I did get the app working once by changing the port to 8081, however when I tried running it again it also ran but would no longer trigger any breakpoints. When I recompiled and tried it again, it said it could not attach to the port (port in use). I tried changing to 8082, but this also locked up MonoDevelop next time I ran. 3) When I did get it to trigger a breakpoint, I noticed a lot of limitations with the soft debugger. First, I cannot drag variables to the watch window (there's also a bug if you drag a variable name off the IDE the move the mouse back, the mouse stays stuck in selection mode). Second, all information seems to be immutable. If I change button1.Text from Click me to Foo, it immediately just changes back to Click me. Third, I love the fact that there's an Immediate Window, but as of yet I've found no use for it. I cannot declare new variables (int x = 5), I cannot seem to change any existing variables (button1.Text = New Value;) and there's no auto-complete (Intellisense) within variables. Having an immediate window in VS for both managed code and script is the single best feature of the VS debugger, IMO. On the plus side, MonoDevelop has definitely come a long way in terms of Mac usability and raw speed. It's quick, loads fast, no weird re-size bugs (except for the fact I cannot seem to resize the entire app, only toggle between maximized and normal).. I would also /love/ to see a keyboard layout that would emulate Windows, where pressing the End key actually moved to the end of the line (silliest thing ever on Mac apps).. The one time I did get the debugger working, it seemed fast. Keep up the good work, it's getting there slowly but surely.. I would /love/ to have an open source alternative to Visual Studio 2008 but looks like we're still a ways off..

At the end of the day, I'm trying to accomplish something like what postgres does: ps aux | grep postgres postgres: IDLE postgres: SELECT postgres: INSERT etc. where I can get a quick idea what the process is doing without having to dig around a bunch of log files. It's clearly possible, other applications do it. Yes, native applications with access to main's argv[0] can achieve it easily under Linux, but managed apps simply cannot access this location. There is also no way that I know of to get a ptr to this memory location from a native library, so p/invoke won't help either. You may want to file an enhancement request with Mono's bugzilla stating that you wish a facility for *dynamically* changing the process name. I guess it's *possible* right now with Mono too. Instead of using the mono executable to run the app, create a tiny native app that uses libmono and the embedding interfaces to load and run the managed exe. This native shim can capture argv[0] and expose it via a P/Invokeable function. -- Michael Hutchinson http://mjhutchinson.com ___ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list

First, there is no portable way to change the process name. Though there is a similar call you can make on BSD (hence MacOS X), so you can use runtime platform detection to choose which call to make. See the SetProcessName method in main/src/core/MonoDevelop.Core/MonoDevelop.Core/Runtime.cs Under Linux, prctl(2) can be used to change the name. It seems that ps is still showing the command line, whereas top is actually considering the new name. For setting the name that ps uses you can use the -a argument to exec.

Is the feature not supported for external files by design? If that's the case, can you suggest alternate structure that will allow me to support multiple solutions?
