[Mono-dev] [PATCH] Implement support for compiled regular expressions in profile 1.x

[Kornél Pál]

Hi,

The runtime has support for generic types in profile 1.0 as well, 
OnDeserializedAttribute could also be used, just like new case 
insensitive and culture invariant string operations/comparison, static 
classes could be supported by profile 1.0 C# compiler because no runtime 
support is needed, and this is just some examples of possible 2.0 suff 
for internal use in 1.0 class library.

As far as I know none of them or any other 2.0 features are used outside 
of mscorlib.dll.

Also note that this is a complete patch including replacing the generic 
Dictionaries with non-generic Hashtables.

Attached a more recent version of the patch with some minor updates.
