Yes, it has been fixed after I mailed about it.
The current status is:
corlib:
we get a nullref while emitting code for this in Array.cs:
int ICollection.Count {
get {
return Length;
}
}
instance_expr ends up null in Mono.CSharp.PropertyExpr.Emit (Mono.CSharp.EmitContext)
Maybe miguel knows why instance_expr may end up null here.
System: compiles
Still some issues in the generated code (see below) and
some errors caused by problems in our reflection.
System.Data: compiles
System.Drawing: compiles
System.Web: compiler issue:
http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=26775
System.Xml:
hits several times the nice hello message from the compiler at:
attribute.cs:149: Console.WriteLine ("HELLO");
It then gets a few warnings regarding custom attribute emission because
it passes a null 1-item array as the constructor arguments for the
System.ComponentModel.DefaultValueAttribute attribute. A binary is
produced, though, with a few PEVerify errors that don't look serious.
The code generated in the assemblies has still a few issues in places:
http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=26496
http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=26506
Once this two compiler bugs have been fixed I think we can start
distributing the assemblies built on Linux instead of with csc
(all but the holy grail, corlib).
Anyway, we made quite a progress in the last few days!
We should be able to start building the assemblies daily to catch
regressions and maybe also start running the test suite against them.
