Is it possible to make a function in mono to include a pre build thread
in the GC threads list?
I suppose "mono_thread_attach(MonoDomain*)" do this, but it hangs when
it is called from a thread :-(
Something like "mono_thread_attach_prebuild(MonoDomain*, pthread_t)".
AND
Is it necessary call the function "mono_runtime_xxx_code()" to init
assembly
^^^
I don't remember the real name yet ;-)
from a thread? It seems like a trick, but it is not a good trick in long
time.
The perfect execution for an embedded MONO is init it and run the
assembly from a unique thread (or several) and support that the extern
thread can control all the execution of the code.
For example: My project creates a lot of execution environments (with
fork), and each one of this can create a lot of threads, each one with a
different MONO domain. When an IP packet arrives it is sending to the
correct code (MONO code) and performs process over this one (perhaps
generating more IP packets). To allow more than one code type, each
thread (can) load a library which contains the execution control so I
can have a .so for dotNet, other for Java, etc... So pre compile the
code with GC is a lack.
It is an exigent environment to test mono in a complex surrounding. And
MONO seems like it isn't able to support that requirements.
I think that is most useful to have got a garbage collector simpler
(although slower) but more independent to allow a powerful MONO. And in
long term support a more complex (and efficient) garbage collector. I
think so because MONO is limited to be embedded in very simple
applications which have got the control inside the portable code and
*not* inside the native code (which is a powerful tool to powerful
applications).
Well, they are some ideas ;-)
Can anybody send me an example of MONO embed into threads? Something
more complex than the example in CVS:/mono/samples/embed
Thanks in advance: Fran

<http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=46137>
<http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=46137> It needs to be able
to stop all the threads when it does a collection, and therefore it
needs to know about all threads. Theres some documentation about why
its done by cpp tricks rather than dynamic linker tricks, but I can't
remember the details offhand.
