[Mono-devel-list] Registry implementation on Linux

[Johannes Roith]

Hello, everybody!

A few days ago, I put together a small implementation of the
Microsoft.Win32 Registry classes, based on Xml.

While this works, it won't probably scale very much, especially, using
XmlDocument at the moment.

It could be done using XmlReader, too, but then it might be 
uncomfortable enough, so we can use the Wine/MS registry format as well.

Does the registry have to scale at all? (Apps, that make heavy use of
it, are probably to much windows based and unportable anyway.)

And how big is the advantage of sharing a registry with wine?

I would like to hear some input.
