[Mono-list] beta2 works with wine

[Petru Paler]

Hello everyone,


I just compiled and run a "hello, world" C# application under Linux, using 
wine and MS's beta2 .NET SDK. It's quite slow (probably because having to 
load a bunch of dlls each time) but I'm very happy that I don't have to do 
development under Windows.

For those wanting to try this: I'm using Wine 20010824 (as packaged in 
Debian/unstable) and I have Win2k installed on a separate partition. The 
winesetup program found the win2k mount directory (/win, in my case) and 
configured wine to use the native DLLs and registry. I had to change the 
Path directive in the config file to this:

"Path" = 
"C:\\winnt;C:\\winnt\\system;C:\\winnt\\system32;C:\\winnt\\Microsoft.NET\\
Framework\\v1.0.2914;X:\\;Y:\\"

(note the .NET stuff) so I could have csc.exe in the path.

Anyway, here's how running hello world looks like:

ppetru@shiva:~/projects/dotnet$ ls -l hello.exe
-rwxr-xr-x    1 ppetru   ppetru       3072 Sep 27 12:06 hello.exe
ppetru@shiva:~/projects/dotnet$ file hello.exe
hello.exe: MS Windows PE 32-bit Intel 80386 console executable
ppetru@shiva:~/projects/dotnet$ wine hello
