Anyone know the state of cocoa#?

Having just updated Mono to 2.6.3 (on OS X), I noticed in the installer that cocoa# 0.9.5 is also installed. However using MonoDevelop there are no cocoa# project templates by default, and I was wondering if anyone knew more about creating cocoa# apps. If you goto the cocoa# page on the Mono site you can see it hasn't been updated since...

mono wsdl tool fails to parse salesforce enterprise.wsdl

Anyone know why this wsdl is not liked by the mono wsdl tool? Microsoft parses it. XMethods online wsdl validator parses it. Mono just doesn't seem to like it and I do not know enough to understand why. # the error mmcaughan@mmcaughan-dsktop:~/Projects/sftest$ wsdl enterprise.wsdl Web Services Description Language Utility Mono Framework...

HttpHandler to handle all kinds of URL's in Mono Apache/XSP in order to build a REST service

Hi, I want to develop my own REST service, so I've created a HttpHandler that is configured with verb="" and path="", the the application in "~/MyRESTsrv/" will handle any derivated URL. This approach works good in IIS7 with "integrated mode" and apparently in IIS6 if you map all the extensions to "aspnet_isapi.dll". Is this possible ...

silverlight for .NET / CLR based numerical computing on osx

I'm interested in using F# for numerical work, but my platforms are not windows based. Mono still has a significant performance penalty for programs that generate a significant amount of short-lived objects (as would be typical for functional languages). Silverlight is available on OSX. I had seen some reference indicating that assem...

VB Project Template for Monobjc in MonoDevelop?

After installing Monobjc and playing around with the Monobjc Application Project under C# in MonoDevelop, I noticed that there is only an empty Monobjc project under the VB section. Obviously this template adds all the correct references but doesn't add the basic files for the application to run. I've tried creating a class with: Impo...

How does one build Mono with only the ECMA covered parts?

I'm trying to figure out how to build Mono without the patented, non ECMA components, such as Winforms. Miguel de Icaza said that Mono would be split in two, so that we could build only the parts under Microsoft's Community Promise. It doesn't seem like this has happened yet. Is there any way to do this yet? ...

mono --aot with MinGW: unknown pseudo-op: `.local'

Can I user mono's AOT feature to natively "pre-compile" .NET DLLs (and or EXEs) to make them harder to reverse engineer? If so, how do I get mono/AOT working in Windows 7? (I'm running x64 but the app is targeting x86 explicitly.) I just installed Mono 2.6.3 and MinGW 5.1.6 and I'm trying to AOT compile an exe (or a dll, it doesn't matt...

Creating a closeable tab in Mono/GTK

I'm trying to create new GTK Notebook tabs that contain both a name (as a Label) and a close button (as a Button with an Image) with the following code: Label headerLabel = new Label(); headerLabel.Text = "Header"; HBox headerBox = new HBox(); Button closeBtn = new Button(); Image closeImg = new Image(Stock.Close, IconSize.Menu); clo...

Mono doesn't write settings defaults

Hi guys! Here is my problem. If I use only one Windows Forms project and call only - Settings.Default.Save() when running it, Mono creates a user.config file with the default value for each setting. It is fine, so far so good. But now I add a class library project, which is referenced from the Windows Forms project and I move the sett...

Problem using System.Xml in unit test in MonoDevelop (MonoTouch)

When I have a unit test that requires the System.Xml or System.Xml.Linq namespaces, I get the following error when I run the test: System.IO.FileNotFoundException : Could not load file or assembly 'System.Xml.Linq, Version=2.0.5.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies.

Can I use mono's AOT feature to natively "pre-compile" .NET DLLs/EXEs to make them harder to reverse engineer?

Can I use mono's AOT (Ahead of Time compilation) feature to natively "pre-compile" all or part of some of my own .NET DLLs (and or EXEs) to make them harder to reverse engineer? I'm using Windows (7 / x64 but I have an x86 XP machine as well) and .NET 3.5 (VS 2008) and I'm curious if mono/AOT can be/has been used for this purpose? (Tying...

Can I use Microsoft Chart Control in Mono?

Did some googling and couldn't find a clear answer on this. My assumption is no if they are distributed in a binary form. I currently use Dundas and would like to move away from a library that has a cost component, especially since the MS version has everything I need. ...

Simple asynchronous Queue datastructure in C#/mono

I want to write an application that needs a Tasks queue. I should be able to add Tasks into this queue and these tasks can finish asynchronously (and should be removable from this queue, once they are complete) The datastructure should also make it possible to get the information about any task within the Queue, provided a unique queue...

Exposing an ISO C++ class to C#

I need to expose some C++ classes to C# (I am building on Linux, using mono, so COM is not an option) The evidence I have gathered so far suggests that the best way to approach this is: Write a wrapper C++.Net class around the ISO C++ class Consume the C++.Net classes from C# I have the following questions: First, is this the "bes...

What obstacles and limitations will I face by choosing Linux + Mono + C# + MySQL for a web application?

Is this combination possible at all? If yes, will I still need to buy Visual Studio? Will I be able to use MySQLi via C#? Thank you. Update: So, does it mean I can use anything from C# ASP.NET (like controls) and it'll work under Mono? ...

SIGABRT error when running MonoTouch application

I'm new to MonoTouch and more times than not, when I try to run my MonoTouch app on the iPhone simulator (debug mode and regular), I receive a long error output that begins with the following message: Error connecting stdout and stderr (127.0.0.1:10001) Couldn't register com.yourcompany.[appnamehere] with the bootstrap server.

Registering a delegate function with an ISO C++ callback (on mono)

I am exposing some ISO C++ data types to .Net (mono on Linux to be precise). For the purpose of brevity, I shall refer to C# in my question, although my question relates to all of the .Net languages (with C# and VB.Net being my target languages). So far, I have worked out how to expose the ISO C++ data types in C# class(es) for use in...

Can't get my head around background workers in .NET

I have wrote an application that syncs two folders together. The problem with the program is that it stops responding whilst copying files. A quick search of stack-overflow told me I need to use something called a background worker. I have read a few pages on the net about this but find it really hard to understand as I'm pretty new to p...
