C# with Mono

By Anish Mistry

What is it?

C# is a language created by Microsoft Corporation to fully exploit thier .NET development framework. Mono is a CLR developed by Ximian to run on other platforms besides Microsoft Windows.

This a down and dirty way to compile and run your .NET C# applications on the Mono CLR.

Instructions

  1. Download and install Mono /usr/ports/lang/mono (If you are running FreeBSD)
  2. If you have a C# application written with Microsoft Visual Studio .NET, you can convert the solution file to a Unix Makefile using the SLNtoMake utility.
  3. Compile SLNtoMake: mcs slntomake.cs
  4. Run the slntomake.exe utility on the Mono CLR to convert the solution file: mono slntomake.exe -u Project.sln > ProjectMakefile
  5. Compile your project: gmake -f ProjectMakefile CSC=mcs TARGET=.
  6. Run the application: mono Project.exe
  7. Enjoy!
