[Mono-dev] mojoPortal 2.0 mono wish list

[Joe Audette]

Hi All,

I've been trying to get mojoPortal 2.0 .NET version to compile and run under mono.
The 1.1 framework version has worked for a long time and can be compiled in MonoDevelop or with an included make file so we are one of probably few projects doing cross platform development with some developers working in Visual Studio and some working on linux with MonoDevelop. The web project is implemented as a class library.

In the 2.0 framework version we have implemented pretty much all the features that we forsee using which involve new .NET features so now I am trying to get it working on mono or at least identify the parts that dont work in hopes that others may help get them working. It is very good timing that the new version of MonoDevelop can compile against the 2.0 mono runtime so I've been working with it to try and compile mojoPortal 2.x and of course we're not there yet so I thought I would present my wish list of things that are missing in hopes that some may  help us along. I may even try and implement some of it myself if I can figure it out.

mojoPortal 2.0 Mono Wishlist

System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.WebPartManager 
System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.PersonalizationProvider
System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.CatalogPart
System.Web.UI.WebControls.ChangePassword
System.Web.UI.WebControls.PasswordRecovery

for localization in 2.0 .NET WebControls we can call
GetGlobalResourceObject("Resource", "MyResourceKey").ToString() to populate localized strings
in Mono it doesn't exist
Resource file are stored under App_GlobalResources so in the above example "Resource" is the class name corresponding to App_GlobalResources/Resource.resx and localized version can be like Resource-es.resx or Resource-pt-BR.resx

Thanks for any help!

Joe
