Also important: By default, it's configured to build optimized. This means
when you step through code, very often it will skip over instructions, and the
stacktrace will neglect intermediate classes/methods, etc. Because the
compiler was able to optimize away those actions for better performance. Good
for release, bad for debugging (where you want the ability to actually step
through code line by line.)
When running ./configure or ./autogen.sh, add the command-line switch:
--disable-bcl-opt
This will compile mono (at least the BCL) non-optimized, for an improved
debugging/development experience.
