[Mono-dev] [PATCH] Generate Consts.vb from Consts.cs (3)

[Rafael Mizrahi]

Hi Kornél,
In the context of Microsoft.VisualBasic, having the Consts.vb file auto-generated, I agree with your approach.

But I guess that this patch should be discussed in context of mono build.
Microsoft.VisualBasic run-time and I think vbnc too, are not yet integrated into the mono build system, and Makefiles. Apart from the fact that they are located on different SVN modules.

So, having the file is cool, but how shall we use it within Microsoft.VisualBasic and vbnc projects.

Rafael

Hi,

Microsoft.VisualBasic and vbnc are written in VB. Consts.cs contains
contants that are usable in these assemblies as well so it is preferable to
have a Consts.vb as well.

I created cs2vb.pl that is intended to generate Consts.vb from Consts.cs so
that only Consts.cs.in has to be maintained by hand.

Please review and approve the patch.
