[Mono-dev] Changing the behavior of Process.Create

Hey Guys,

I've been looking on how to fix those two bugs:
https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=17831
https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=17820

And one option we're contemplating is to switch the behavior of
Process.Create
when launching managed assemblies to first try to use the currently running
runtime
before delegating to one in PATH.

Currently if you run a program that uses Process.Create with a runtime not
located in path,
the launched process will use mono from the PATH, which to some sounds
surprising.

Does anyone know of any app that will break with such change of behavior?

This probably only affects embedders and mono hackers.
