Here's my first try on building IronPython 2.0 Alpha 1 on Mono: https://fepy.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/fepy/trunk/patches/2.0a1/
First, get Mono from SVN, revision later than 76552. Because of an oversight, Mono's C# compiler (actually parser) didn't allow attributes in parameters of operator methods. Namely: "public static object operator >([NotNull]OldInstance self, object other)" was rejected. This is now fixed. 1. patch-makefile Spaces to tabs. Backward slashes to forward slashes. csc to gmcs. Also, add missing System.Configuration.dll reference. 2. patch-81500 Mono's C# compiler currently doesn't compile the expressions of the form 'obj as string ?? ""', where "as" operator associates more strongly than "??" operator. This is Mono bug #81500. http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=81500 patch-81500 workarounds this bug by parenthesizing all such expressions in the IronPython 2.0 Alpha 1 source code. 3. patch-delegate-conversion Mono's C# compiler currently doesn't handle implicit standard delegate conversion from DefaultNameTransform to ExtensionNameTransformer in ReflectedTypeBuilder.cs. My workaround is to explicitly declare the delegate and assign later. After these, gmcs crashes inside Mono runtime with backtrace pointing to custom attribute resolution. Still investigating, but above three patches should help anyone trying to dig this on their own together with me. :) Good luck! -- Seo Sanghyeon _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com
