Mono 2.8 just came out. Have you revaluated based on current capabilities? Walt Crosby _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Greg Sent: Monday, October 11, 2010 7:35 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [OT] Migrating .NET Windows Service application to Linux We will be migrating a windows service application and a small windows forms application to Linus 1Q 2011. The service reads from many MSMQs and uploads data to a WCF service throughout the day. Our development vendor is telling us porting to Java is the best solution. We are a C# .NET shop, so this means hiring a Java resource; at least temporary to do the migration and then as needed for patches and service packs. Is Java the best route to go here? What about C or C++? I looked at Mono a few months ago; impressive though it was missing some of the things we needed. Can we use Mono and Java together?
