[Mono-dev] Playing with Mono.Terminal, no success

[Russ Clarke]

Hi,

For what it's worth I tried the same code below, with the stty options and got some really weird terminal corruption;  (Linux Mint 9).

However, clicking on Terminal->Reset gives me a bit of an idea whats going off here.
Mono-curses is in my GAC, and mono-curses.dll is also in the folder with the executable; I've tried removing and re-gac'ing the assembly, with the package option too.

~/Projects/test/test/bin/Debug $ mono test.exe; stty
Curses failed to initialize, the exception is: System.TypeInitializationException:
        An exception was thrown by the type initializer for Mono.Terminal.Window --->           System.DllNotFoundException: mono-curses
                at (wrapper managed-to-native)
                        Mono.Terminal.Curses:console_sharp_get_dims (int&,int&)

Hope this helps someone!

Hi Miguel,

Well, here's my code (I tried a different example than the one sent before)

using System;
using Mono.Terminal;

namespace clustermgr
{
    class MainClass
    {
        public static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Application.Init(false);
            Dialog d = new Dialog (40, 8, "Print");
            Button b = new Button ("All Pages");
            b.Clicked += delegate {
               d.Running = false;
            };
            d.AddButton (b);

            b = new Button ("Current Page");
            b.Clicked += delegate {
                d.Running = false;
            };
            d.AddButton (b);

            Application.Iteration += delegate {
                Application.Refresh();
            };

            Application.Run(d);
        }
    }
}

Problem is that the app ends immediately, I don't see anything on the
screen... Maybe I'm just misunderstanding the whole thing, I don't know...
