[Mono-dev] Patches for mono-winforms

[Steven Boswell II]

No, as in calling MessageBox.Show() while creating the first Form.

If you have Stifu's DgwTest project that he posted here a few days ago, it's written like that.
I could also modify my recently-posted ComboBoxTest to do that -- in fact, I had to put it in its current form after I saw Mono "freak out". :-)

Mono doesn't seem to freak out either.. 

I followed the instructions here for creating a dialog:
http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/michaelgold/CreatingDialogsin.NET11232005043509AM/CreatingDialogsin.NET.aspx

Created the project in Visual Studio, modified the program.cs so instead of calling Application.Run(new Form 1), it instead does something like:

Form Form1 = new Form1();
Form1.ShowDialog();

I compiled and ran this in windows - fine.

I then brought the binary (.exe) over to my linux partition and ran
    it in mono 2.10.8.1 and it ran fine.

                .Net behavior?  I can see where bringing up a dialog box
                in modal (full control above all previous windows) mode
                would demand some kind of message processing to be
                running until it returns..  If it's not already.  Sounds
                like a bug, if so probably should be filed.  If you want
                me to do the footwork of checking it against windows and
                filing the bug report, just say so and i'll spend the
                time.  I"m kind of in a holding pattern on doing new
                patchwork while waiting for some earlier patches to
                either clear or be rejected.
