[Mono-dev] Compiling LDAP on mono 1.1.15 on windows

[Justin Dearing]

Folks,

First of all I wrote build_mono.bat  based on build.bat with a
modified compile line from muild.sh to get it to build. I ran this
from the "mono command prompt" shortcut that setups a command line
envirorment for mono. Code is below:

=======================================================

@echo off
if not exist lib   md lib
if not exist doc   md doc

if exist lib\Novell.Directory.Ldap.dll del lib\Novell.Directory.Ldap.dll

echo "Building resources..."
call resgen Novell.Directory.Ldap\Novell.Directory.Ldap.UtilClass\ExceptionMessages.txt
lib\ExceptionMessages.resources

call resgen Novell.Directory.Ldap\Novell.Directory.Ldap.UtilClass\ResultCodeMessages.txt
lib\ResultCodeMessages.resources
echo "Generating lib\Novell.Directory.Ldap.dll.."
mcs -debug /noconfig /target:library /r:mscorlib.dll /r:System.dll
-resource:.\lib\ResultCodeMessages.resources
-resource:.\lib\ExceptionMessages.resources
-nowarn:0219,1570,1572,1574,1587 /doc:.\doc\comments.xml
/out:.\lib\Novell.Directory.Ldap.dll
@Novell.Directory.Ldap.dll.sources


del lib\ResultCodeMessages.resources
del lib\ExceptionMessages.resources

=======================================================

I put the call in front of the resgen because it stops after te first
resgen without it. I guess resgen in mono is a batch file wrapper
around something else. I didnt bother to check as it wasn't
particularly important. I replaced all the `pwd` with "." in the path
references. I then replaced the -g with -debug as apprently -g was
depreciated.


I tried compiling Novells LDAP library on windows out of their cvs and
got several Error CS3011. The message text for that error is "only
CLS-compliant members can be abstract"

It seems that if you give an interface an attributre of 
[CLSCompliant(true)] in mono, you have to explicitly do so for each
member. I find it funny that the novell CsharpLdap library needs some
modification to  compile on mono so its possible I;m doing something
else wrong. but apply this patch inside of
"CsharpLDAP/Novell.Directory.LDAP/Novell.Directory.Ldap.Asn1/" to get
it to compile on mono for windows with my batch file.
