Re: [Mono-list] Getting started
The gentoo packages are pretty outdated last time I checked, if that's still the case you should compile the latest mono package yourself. For a book, I recommend "Inside C#" by Tom Archer, in addition to being excellent for learning C# and .NET, it also dives a little into MSIL so you get a better understanding of how things work under the hood. MSDN is also a great resource once you have a solid understand of .NET's basics. I use VS.NET for an IDE, but SharpDevelop is an good alternative and I hear MonoDevelop (based on Sharp) is getting better.

Let RPM worry about that. :-) In principal, you should be able to do this: $ rpm -ivh *.rpm In practice, you might not be able to, as you might be missing required packages. For example, when I did this with the beta 1 take-3 packages, RPM gave me errors for gtk-sharp-gapi, as I was missing a bunch of perl-XML-* packages (which I see you have, but I didn't). I wasn't interested in installing all those packages, which brings us to an alternative setup: # Get an editable list of all the RPMs $ ls -1 *.rpm > rpms.txt # edit rpms.txt to include only the RPMs that are easily # installable $ rpm -ivh `cat rpms.txt` The backtick (`) operator, not to be confused with a normal single quote (it's the key to the left of `1'), executes the command within the backticks, and substitutes the command's standard output in-place. This allows us to easily trim down the set of packages to install, so that you minimize the extra packages you require. Some of the required packages aren't part of mono. For example, glib2-devel may be required for some of the packages. You'll have to manually install such external dependencies. If the RPMs you downloaded are for you distribution, that should be it. Edit "rpms.txt" to include the packages you want, use `rpm -i', and you're done. If the RPMs aren't for your distribution, it may be impossible or you may need to do more work. (For example, I installed the Red Hat 9 RPMs on Fedora Core 2 Test 2, and they weren't a complete match.) `rpm --nodeps' can be your friend. (FC2T2 has a "gtkhtml3" package installed, but gtk-sharp wanted "gtkhtml3.0", even though they appear to be the same.

I am using Red Carpet, and it's great. The only issue I have is that some dll's don't seem to be included and mono develop isn't included, and I can't seem to build it. I'm hoping that the upcoming releases will have more of the dll's, and that I'll be able to build mono develop. > > > Sorry if this repeated question annoys you.

without wishing to start an argument (and as someone who has just gone through this exercise) not every linux machine is connected to the internet so Red Carpet etc do not work!

Re: [Mono-list] getting started
> I'm trying to give mono a try. My questions in a nutshell is, "Where > should I start?" Is there a page for Mono newbies? I have read some of the responses, and they basically went something like: Get RedCarpet, if your distribution is not supported -> switch to something else. Now, I try to keep up-to-date on different distributions and have found Mandrake to be the best (running 10.0 like you are). I would not switch. Mandrake has package magement built in, and it supports automatic resolving dependencies (like RedCarpet). The mono packages are also available as Mandrake Cooker packages. Here is how you can install mono: After finding a mirror of your liking you can add the mirror as a software source using "Media Manager" under "Software Management" in the Mandrake Linux Control Center (Configure your computer). If you are a Mandrake Club member adding software sources is made easy by using the Mandrake Club web-site. On the web-site you can lookup mirrors. When you select a mirror you are shown a command for adding your mirror to the Media Manager. If you are not a Mandrake Club member you will have to find a mirror manually. After adding the mirror as a software source you should be able to use "Install" under "Software Management" to search for and install mono, including dependencies. Best of luck to you! ___ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list

Hi,
this is the right one:
using System;
class Hello {
public static void Main() {
Console.WriteLine( "Hello, World!" );
}
}
First of all: Main method must return a valid type (void); then the
method writeln is not present inside the Console class
Bye

Thanks for your help Salvatore. hello.cs now looks like:
// Hello World! : hello.cs
using System;
class Hello {
public static void Main() {
Console.WriteLine( "Hello, World!" );
}
}
Unfortunately, I still receive the same compile error:
# mcs hello.cs
hello.cs(3,13): error CS8025: Parsing error
Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warnings
Any thoughts?
Cheers!

Re: [Mono-list] Getting started
Hello, To clear things up, you can create cross-platform apps by still using Visual Studio. But if you want to move to a cross-platform IDE, then MonoDevelop is what you're looking for. Look around the Mono site for more info. yolandre wrote: > > Hi all, > I have just downloaded Mono and am considering a cross-over fom Visual > Studio .Net. Where to start?

Re: [Mono-list] Getting Started With MonoTouch
Tim, MonoTouch is not currently available to the public. If you are interested in our private beta please fill out the survey @ http://bit.ly/3MxPlS -g On 3-Aug-09, at 11:19 AM, Tim Scott wrote: I am a total noob to Mono. I was hoping to give a try to MonoTouch. This tutorial shows how to get started with MonoTouch development: http://www.mono-project.com/MonoTouch_Tutorial_MonoDevelop_HelloWorld It instructs to use "MonoDevelop MonoTouch Edition," and it provides a link to the MonoDevelop site -- where it can presumably be obtained. I cannot find any such thing on that site. Nor can Google find it for me. I downloaded the latest version of MonoDevelop (for Mac OS X 10.4/10.5), but there is no sign of IPhone MonoTouch project types as shown in the tutorial. I tried version 2009/07/06 and also 2009/05/05. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Re: [Mono-list] Getting started with Clutter
Well, seeing as I so far have no reply, can I take that to mean that no one uses it, and therefore know one has any advice to give concerning it. I see that the mono page points to a SVN repository for it, however if you look closely at the code it comes with the following warning: Clutter and all of the related modules have migrated to a git repository. This SVN repository is now read only and will no longer be updated. Please clone the git repository instead by typing: git clone git://git.clutter-project.org/clutter There is also a web interface to it here: I haven't tried it yet, But before I waste to much time on it I would like to know if it actually works. As far as I can tell it is not in synaptic, however there are python bindings, and javascript bindings. daniel wrote: > I'm want to learn clutter using the c# bindings. > > I'm interested in any advice people can give about how to get started. > > What good tutorials are there that I can work through? > > Is there any good open source examples of it being used which I can > look at? > > Are the binding available in the Ubuntu 9.10 repros or do I need to > build them from source? > > Any other advice or tips would be very much appreciated. > > Cheers, > Daniel > ___ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
