[Mono-dev] Compiling Mono with Visual Studio and .pdb files

[Jean-Michel.Perraud at csiro.au]

Hi,

I gather that some effort was made to compile Mono with VS or the .NET framework SDK on Windows a few years ago. This past couple of days I looked into it as I am developing for Mono and MS .NET embedding. While I use occasionally MonoDevelop, which may be the preferred tool now, with debug much better than a few years ago, I'd like to stick to one IDE (even the grey-on-grey thing known as VS2011 beta) on Windows.

There has not been a lot of activity lately under the msvc folder. The build process is a bit of a rocky road, understandably, and I logged my tribulations for myself. I want to gauge the interest in dusting off the build process. I noticed that Marek Saraf (Novell?) has commited this past month.

Advice/ideas on the overall build process desirable is welcome. I cannot commit to set it up (time and know-how pending), but discussions cannot hurt.

Cheers,
J-M
