Even with .Net being open source, you cannot ever expect it to simply compile straight up, on a non-windows platform. Lots of changes are required under the hood to implement things like file and socket operations, which are fundamentally based on different underlying technologies. You should not expect such an effort to ever be done - because it's already been done in mono, and there's no motivation for anyone to repeat all that work in a separate project. > Putting to one side the criticism of Mono, I was looking at some CoreCLR info the other day and it does look like build on Linux is well on the way? It also looks as though they plan to have ARM support in there at some point? https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/wiki/Developer-Guide Cheers, Alex _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
