[Mono-dev] ASP.NET Xarmin - GSoC 2013

[Marcelo Zabani]

There is a small set of bugs that really annoy when running XSP in debug
mode. Some of them may not be strictly monodevelop related (they may belong
to Mono's ASP.NET implementation). Some of these are:

- System.ApplicationException: Failed to acquire lock after at
System.Web.SessionState.SessionInProcHandler.ResetItemTimeout
(System.Web.HttpContext context, System.String id)
- System.ArgumentException: Key duplication when adding: authorization at
System.Collections.Hashtable.PutImpl (System.Object key, System.Object
value, Boolean overwrite)
- System.MethodAccessException: Method
`System.Web.HttpRequest:get_InputValidationEnabled ()' is inaccessible from
method
`Microsoft.Web.Infrastructure.DynamicValidationHelper.ValidationUtility:IsValidationEnabled
(System.Web.HttpContext)'
- System.Configuration.Provider.ProviderException: Operation aborted due to
an exception (see Trace for details).  See
http://www.mono-project.com/FAQ:_ASP.NET#Common_Problems for additional
suggestions.
  at System.Web.Security.SqliteMembershipProvider.GetUser (System.String
username, Boolean userIsOnline)

And the most common of them all shows up in MonoDevelop in a exception
dialog right after trying to run my mvc application in debug mode:

- System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of
an object at System.IO.DefaultWatcher.DoFiles (System.IO.DefaultWatcherData
data, System.String directory, Boolean dispatch) [0x001b9] in
/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/mono-2.10.9-r1/work/mono-2.10.9/mcs/class/System/System.IO/DefaultWatcher.cs:221

Maybe the first steps to make ASP.NET amazing in MonoDevelop is to fix all
these bugs that really get in the way of ASP.NET development, although this
is just my opinion :)
