[Mono-dev] Can we run .Net applications that modifies windows registry by using mono on linux ?

[Jaco Adriaansen]

>From the Mono Faq:

*What about writing to the registry? As I understand it, Linux does not
have a counterpart to the registry. Should I avoid relying on that feature?*

Try to avoid it. Although there would be a emulation for registry in Mono
too. GNOME does have a registry like mechanism for configuration. But Even
if gnome has a configuration system similar to the registry, the keys will
not be equal, so you will probably end up having to do some runtime
detection, and depending on this load an assembly that has your
platform-specific hacks.
