mono compiler on debian

[sde]

is anyone using mono ( www.go-mono.com ) on debian?

i have a simple program:

using System; 
namespace test 
{ 
  class  Hello 
  { 
    public static void Main() 
    { 
        Console.WriteLine("Hello World\n"); 
    } 
  } 
}

when i compile it, i get this error:

# mcs test.cs

Unhandled Exception: System.NotImplementedException: The requested feature is not yet implemented
in <0x0002a> 00 System.Reflection.Emit.AssemblyBuilderefineVersion InfoResource ()
in <0x011bc> 00 Mono.CSharp.Driver:MainDriver (string[])
in <0x0001a> 00 Mono.CSharp.Driver:Main (string[])

any ideas on this one?

Strange, I just copied and compiled that code without any problems on RH9 and Mono.

$ mcs Hello.cs 
Compilation succeeded
$ mono Hello.exe
Hello World

$

Perhaps running mcs with the "-v" option will shed some light on this? Also, which version are you running (mcs --version)? I am currently using:

$ mcs --version
Mono C# compiler version 0.29.99.42746

earlier versions 0.29 have had a problem with compiling correctly. I'm not exactly sure what build of 0.29 it was, but I ended up dropping back to 0.28.

0.29.99.0

maybe i need to compile a newer version from source ?

it would have been nice, but i suppose it's not that big of a deal since i can compile in visual studio =)

Hello,
I have a problem setting up MONO on my lindows os.
pe666o:/work/mono/mono# make fullbuild
rm ../mcs/class/lib/mscorlib.dll ../mcs/mcs/mcs.exe runtime/*dll runtime/*.exe > /dev/null 2>&1; echo

(cd ../mcs/jay; make)
make[1]: Entering directory `/work/mono/mcs/jay'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/work/mono/mcs/jay'
(cd ../mcs/mcs; make MCS=mcs BOOTSTRAP_MCS=mcs)

make: *** [mcs-tree-safe-build] Error 2




thats what o get when i try' make fullbuild' from mono soutce dir.
mono and mint are installed but there is no way i can make the damn mcs to install. i have both mono and mcs source dirs.
please can anyone help me!?

Well that figures:

rm ../mcs/class/lib/mscorlib.dll ../mcs/mcs/mcs.exe runtime/*dll runtime/*.exe > /dev/null 2>&1; echo
...
mcs -d:NET_1_1 -d:ONLY_1_1 -g /target:exe /out:mcs.exe
...
make[1]: mcs: Command not found

No wonder mcs can't be found, when the build removes it prior to it's own use...

[pe666o]

damn,
OK are there any decent documentation how to install this MONO on linux? nothing on the site, and install.txt, etc., simply suck and is actually wrong.

Anyone know of any link!? or any of you who succesfuly have installed it please give me detailed steps to go through.
