[Mono-dev] setters and getters for mono.simd

I was looking for over the simd specs and I found out something very interesting. PEXTRW (Extract Packed Word) and PINSRW (Packed Insert Word) These two could be used for the getters and setters for Vector4f (though one would have to use them in pairs) and the good thing is that they are plain

You can try to use Mono's VM image which is an tailored-OpenSUSE, upgrading it to newer mono releases or using it to build and run mono from svn trunk is far easier than building mono in windows. It also may help you find real portability issues, like what happens when the linux user doesn't have

It's not ideal, but you can grab daily precompiled assemblies from here: http://mono.ximian.com/daily/ , and place them in your Mono's GAC: C:\Program Files\Mono-2.2\lib\mono\gac. (Or use Mono's gacutil to register them.) Jonathan SuperCiccio wrote: Hello, I'm writing a .NET application
