To play a video, I write to stdin like this: loadfile {filename} When I'm ready to play the next video, I call loadfile again with the new filename. Problem: if I play a video and then somet...
While all of my machines are Macs, I actually really enjoy working in .NET. I thought it would be fun to try my hand at writing a Silverlight application. Unfortunately, as near as I can tell, Silverlight is not a part of Mono that actually works on OS X. Is it possible to develop Silverlight on OS X, or will I need to use a VM? If it's...
I have a console application that I wrote for .NET/Windows that I suddenly had the need for on my unix system. Mono has, for the most part, been hugely successful at providing this for me. There is however a small issue - The application issues many HttpWebRequests as it runs, and for a small portion of these, Mono is returning an error...

I've downloaded the latest bits (2.6.7), created a simple console application in Visual Studio and referenced the Mono.CSharp dll.

Hi, I have a very simple .NET commandline application that I want to port to OS X. I can run it with "mono app.exe" However, the destination machines won't have mono installed. So, I wanted to bundle mono inside the app. In order to do this, I used mkbundle2: mkbundle2 -o bundledapp.exe app.exe --deps This works without errors, outpu...
I installed mono in Mac OS X. I was following these instructions on the mono website. The first console application worked because it didn't use any packages. However, when I ran gmcs hello.cs -pkg:gtk-sharp-2.0, it told me I didn't have pkg-config installed. So I installed pkg-config. Now I get this error because pkg-config doesn't know...
Hi, The .NET method Socket.AcceptAsync() has a neat feature: The ability to specify an initial buffer that will receive some amount of data immediately after accepting the new connection. This could be useful for exchanging a fixed-length signature, protocol header, session ID or similar initiatory data (and in fact, that is what the MS...

So what are the particularities of developing with Mono? What are the advantages over developing with Visual Studio (except cross-platform thinghie)? ...

Hi all, I have recently installed Ubuntu Linux on my machine. This machine is on pretty much all of the time and houses my music collection. I have looked at various solutions for a central repository for music and each one is lacking in one way or another.

Our desktop application consists of a Mono/.NET 3.5 back end that communicates via USB with a variety of devices and a Silverlight front end that communicates with the back end via sockets. The firmware for the devices is developed in-house with C. To accelerate our development process and reduce bugs, we would like to share code betwe...
