I think it should be possible to avoid installing everything to the GAC by making liberal use of codeBase declarations in the machine.config file instead. Of course, I guess it's six one way, half a dozen the other; either way, you still have to sign the assembly. --Brian ___ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list

You should take note that mono-service based program doesn't work with this version... Le mardi 29 aot 2006 16:43 -0400, Miguel de Icaza a crit : Hello, Mono 1.1.17 has been released. Full release notes: www.go-mono.com/archive/1.1.17 Mono was branched at version 1.1.13 to become the stable version of Mono that is distributed by Novell on its enterprise products. That series of releases are only getting bug fixes. Before each release we run all of the regression tests on Mono, so we consider this release usable for deployment, but there are still a few changes in various areas. This release is mostly a bug-fix release, there are very few new developments. Changes since Mono 1.1.16 Highlights Basic world: The Mono Basic compiler and the Basic runtime have been removed from the Mono distribution. A new compiler that is compatible with Visual Basic 2005 and a matching runtime are now part of a separate distribution. On this particular release, we are offering the basic runtime, but the compiler is not able to run completely on Mono yet. Windows.Forms: Printing is now supported. This release is able to compile and build IronPython 1.0 RC2. COM: Basic COM support has been integrated. Inotify watcher The FileSystem will now use inotify directly on systems that support it without having to go through an external library like FAM or Gamin, this should make our use of inotify reliable. [Gonzalo Paniagua] Async Process Notification 2.0 support for asynchronous reads and writes from the Process class is now supported [Gonzalo]. Mono Loading as a Shared Library Works Again This was a problem that mostly affected the OpenOffice plugin, which loaded Mono as a separate process, this is now fixed [Zoltan Varga] Gtk# Split As part of Gtk# becoming one of the supported language bindings in the Gnome platform and Tomboy, a Gtk#-based application, becoming part of the Gnome desktop, Gtk# has been split up into multiple packages, instead of a single one. All the packages are available from our download site [Mike Kestner]. Mono.Cairo Mono.Cairo bindings now supports a DirectFB surface now [Alp Toker]. System.Drawing This release includes an upgraded Cairo stack (from 1.0 to 1.2) and allowed us to enable printing in System.Drawing and System.Windows.Forms. The original work was done by Jordi Mas, the Cairo upgrade by Peter Bartok and the work was completed by Chris Toshok. 2.0 API updates Process now support the async io handling [Gonzalo Paniagua] String.Normalize is included [Atsushi Enomoto] ADO.NET 2.0 updates, included an implementation for SqlConnection.GetSchema (Nagappan, Nagappan). Registry Updated to the 2.0 API. [Miguel de Icaza] Gert added support for splitting the registry across user and system level settings. [Gert Driesen] mod_mono Added support for X.509 client certificates. It's now possible to use System.Web.HttpClientCertificate with Apache. Certificate validation can be done by Apache, Mono or both (default). [Hubert Fongarnand, Sebastien Pouliot] Security SN now accept password-protected PKCS#12/PFX files to strongname assemblies. This feature is enabled in both 1.x and 2.0 profiles [Sebastien Pouliot] Additions CodeDOM JScriptCodeProvider code _javascript_ code is now included [Akiramei] An EventLog implementation is available on both Unix and Windows, to use set the MONO_EVENTLOG_TYPE variable like this: * local[:path] generates a log file in the given path. If the path is not given, it will store the results in /var/lib/mono/eventlog on Unix and in %APPDATA%\mono\eventlog on Windows. * win32: This uses the native Windows API to send the log messages to the system event log. * null: discards all of the events to a pathname where the events should be logged to [Atsuhi Enomoto, Gert Driesen] COM Interop: Basic support for Runtime Callable Wrappers (RCWs). This allows users to use unmanaged components from managed code. [Jon Chambers] Sqlite now exposes a Version property to detect which underlying database is available (2.x or 3.x) [Joshua Tauberer] Mono.Posix now features an abstract Unix end point in addition to Unix End Points [Alp Toker]. XML Land Fixed XmlSchemaSet and XmlSchemaCollection problem across multiple namespaces [Atsushi Enomoto] Important Bug Fixes Dynamic linking of Mono is now possible in applications that were using the TLS (open office) [Zoltan Varga]. Newly created AppDomains no longer inherit the list of loaded assemblies from the main domain. This has an important side-effect, to get XSP and mod_mono running, you must install the latest versions of it (released in this iteration), older versions will not work [Lluis Sanchez]. A
Re: [Mono-list] [Mono-dev] Mono 1.1.17 has been released.
The thread is about a language (platform) allowing one to do most anything, adding Flash to the mix immediately defeats the purpose. I use asp.net, great for many things when i am talking in a browser i am talking about stuff that you can't handle with asp.net, like a full fledged arcade game (to take it to an extreme), a video/audio playing client, the power to properly sync video and audio, integrate with the local file system and other resources. ASP.NET and AJAX don't even get you 1% of the way there, and even flash is incredibly lacking in some of these areas. I have been involved with many projects, and the clients always have the same needs. The audience goes to a web site, and you want to make your sale QUICK (or viral growth), say its a podcast client, a community collaboration tool, casino games, whatever, and the clients don't want to hear about a install executable, or a pokey asp.net sol'n, they want, when i boils down to it, an active X plugin (vb, c, c++ depending on needs) (or Java), and it just runs right there, no fuss no muss. Programmers don't think twice about installing a gtk app, 99+% of web users will not touch it with a ten foot pole. They will move on to the next casino, or community collaboration tool that just works right there, and yes many times now, you can find it to be flash, but lets not even go there and discuss the use of flash. I am just saying, it would be nice if Mono answered everyones needs (w.r.t the general places that you deploy programs - i.e. stand alone apps, ajax, asp.net, scripts/command line, and lastly browser plugins ), and filled this rather HUGE void (all be it a particularly commercial one). -tl On Wed, 2006-08-30 at 08:11 +0100, damien churchill wrote: __ From: damien churchill Sent: 30 August 2006 08:11 To: 'Justin Dearing' Subject: RE: [Mono-dev] Mono 1.1.17 has been released.

Don't mean to start a flame war here, but if you want the write once run anywhere in a browser. If you can't do it in AJAX, do it in flash. Secondly, have you heard of ASP.NET, The equivilant of JSP for .NET. Mono's support is pretty good. Aside from needing C for linux kernel programming, what would even be better then write once, run anywhere, is write for any purpose, write once, run anywhere and unfortunately mono has not provided a means to use it as a browser plugin like Java. For me i could go for just a plugin to Firefox (linux and Win32), wouldnt even need it to support IE. Until this can occur, a programmer still has to Java or (active x plugin), to achieve web page integration. Unfortunately not having this is a huge barrier to some people adopting mono.

I just want to say great job to those making mono a real and competitive alternative to the .NET platform, in addition to its incredible cross-platform enabling; being an engineer with .NET technologies, I can say that mono is truly robust and really (finally) provides the write once, run anywhere capability we all have longed for.
