Re: [Mono-list] GAC-only installation?
Jarek, I couldn't agree more. I already posted a message about this (and a few other issues) in the Mono dev list earlier. I really hope the Mono team will reconsider this ... Gert - Original Message - From: Jaroslaw Kowalski [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 30, 2004 11:35 PM Subject: [Mono-list] GAC-only installation? Hi! I've noticed that under the new build system some libraries are only installed into GAC. That means that there's no longer /usr/lib/System.*.dll that could be used for compilation as a reference. That means I have to do: export MONO_PATH=~/src/mcs/class/lib/default/ before I can even run mcs -r System.Data.dll xxx.cs MS keeps the second copy of each system dll in the same directory where csc.exe is located (C:\WINNT\Microsft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322) for the sole purpose of referencing it during compilation. Note that MS doesn't allow you to reference dlls in the GAC. Are you planning to have a similar structure in mono-1.0? If not, what will the setup look like? I would vote for a flat directory where mcs.exe and all libraries are kept - just because it's simple and familiar to csc.exe users. Jarek BTW. Because of this issue, NAnt/CVS is no longer runnable on Mono ;-( ___ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list ___ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
Re: [Mono-list] GAC-only installation?
Yes, but the paths are cryptic because MS doesn't want you to do so.
