The irony of your post is that it was easier to rewrite sharpdevelop
using gtk# then to get it working with our winforms (because of
pinvokes
and windowsisms) ;-)
Asking about GTK portability/GTK GUI Builder and then using
MonoDevelop as an example of a GTK GUI IDE and it does not run on
cross-platform.
Monodevelop does not work on windows because its designed to be a
first
class IDE on Linux, not a cross platform IDE. So it takes
advantages of
things that don't exist on windows, and does things in a more linuxy
way. Instead of taking the lowest common denominator of two operating
systems (one of which already has plenty of IDEs) they decided to
focus
on Linux/Unix.
And the irony of your post is that some of us are primarily
interested in the cross-platform aspects of mono and not writing
monodevelop to be portable seems a little ... something.
I'm using Mac OS X and I would love to be able to use monodevelop.
Oh well. Maybe Apple will tell us about where the hooks are in Xcode
so we could develop on that for mono. Until then, I'll just use
jEdit, I suppose.
