[Mono-dev] JumboPatch: work-in progress.

Hi Miguel,

Nice to see you're making progress. Sorry, I wish I could help (no Mac).

I just wanted to ask a quick question: Ralph provided a patch for bug 438281, do you have it or did you commit it, or did it get lost? Unfortunately, he didn't attach it to the bug report.

Hello guys, 


I did another pass at merging Ralph's changes, and committed a lot of the low-hanging fruit into Git. 


The remaining changes are now:

If anyone wants to extract some of the changes and document the subsystems and what they do, it would be of great help. 


The clipboard refactoring code is still here, but nobody has provided any feedback, from my previous post: 








I am not sure why these changes were needed in the first place. They moved the Clipboard functionality from the XplatXXX drivers into a new set of XplatClipboardXXX drivers, but we have no idea what was wrong with the previous approach and why this change is needed. At least we now have those split, so we can chose to pick the changes later if they make sense, and we can continue integrating the rest of the patches that Ralph left on our doorstep one-by-one.
