[Mono-dev] Mono.Security on Compat Framework

[Matthijs ter Woord]

Hi,

For some private project, we've been trying to get Mono.Security running on the Compact .NET Framework.

After we spend some ours of debugging, the major problem with it was that CF.NET seems to be lacking decent async method invocation support. Once we fixed that, the only thing we needed to do was copy some other parts of mono (mostly System.Security.Cryptography related) into the assembly.

After this journey, I'd like to see whether there's any interest of getting these changes back to the Mono repository.

This should probably be in a different project, which contains all kinds of compatibility classes, to emulate the normal .NET framework, but this seems quite doable to me.


I hope to gain some comments on this...
