This is the same thing that's given in the FAQ but I dont need this. I cannot possibly rely on this at the end-user, what if their kernel does not have support for it? Should I recompile their kernel in the installation program? Seems insane. Also the problems with Wine.


As I said below, what I would like to use it a pure native Linux stub instead. Would not that be rather easy to create? Anyone tried?

It probably depends on whether you need to keep the file as a valid P.E. file. I'm not sure its possible to create a file thats both a valid P.E and is also recognizable to the linux loader as a native binary. I don't know that much about the linux loader so I could be wrong here.


possible workaround solutions are:
- create shell script launchers for each managed exe
- create stubs yourself in c that host the runtime and load the required managed executable.

Hi Mono-guys,

I saw in the FAQ that mono apps are called using "mono hello.exe" but in
Windows you can run them directly because the hello.exe program is
essentially just a stub that kicks the interpreter going.


Now, I read in the FAQ that there is a hack which avoids the "mono
hello.exe" problem but do you guys have any plans to implement real
Linux/MacOS/HP-UX stubs? They would be basically the same as the Win dows
.NET .exe files but they would be native to their respective system.


Is anyone working on that?
