[Mono-dev] Mono Develop native menus on Mac OS X

[Kris Ray]

I tried to do it this way previously, but I think I was doing something wrong.  Is this dllmap option supposed to be in the application's config file or some sort of global mono config file.  Just let me know, and I'll test / submit the solution.
 
thanks,
Kris

Hey,

That can be fixed by using a dllmap to reroute the native library to the correct one for macos. If you can create a patch to update the dllmap to pick up the correct libraries on MacOS and attach it to bugzilla, it might be possible to enable the SVN addin by default.

	That would be a great idea.  I use MonoDevelop primarily on Linux, but I will also have to release Mac versions of our software.  Currently, Mac monodevelop is a bit flaky.  Nothing major (beyond what was intentionally removed), but it is very annoying at times.
	 
	Also, it looks like the version control add-in should be included in the MAc version.  It works fine - you just currently have to trick it into working by creating symbolic links from fake libapr*.so and libsvn*.so files to libapr*.dylib and libsvn*.dylib.
	 
	thanks,
	Kris

	Funny you would mention this, we were just discussing that at lunch
	today, and we want to make this happen.
	
	My major concern is not as much the menu itself, but any other bugs that
	we might not be aware of in MonoDevelop/Mac, since none of us use a Mac
	as our main system.   We only hear reports through the grapevines and
	would like to have more actionable data on what might be broken on MD.
	
	Maybe we should get a Mac for someone in the MonoDevelop team as their
	main machine to make sure that all of these issues get fixed.
	
	Miguel
