[Mono-list] Zero-sized DLLs (corlib, System.* etc.)

[Daniel Morgan]

You need to check out from cvs the mcs module.

Such as:
cvs -z3 checkout mcs

cd mcs

make

cp mcs/mcs* ~/mono/install/bin
cp class/lib/* ~/mono/install/lib

Make sure your ~/mono/install/bin path is in your $PATH
And that ~/mono/install/lib path is in your $LD_LIBRARY_PATH and $PATH

Your install prefix may differ from what the ~/mono/install I used
above.

Hello everyone,

I am trying to compile mono using anonymous CVS access.  I executed 
"mono-build.sh" and used anonymouse CVS to checkout the source tree. 
 Everything compiles ok with no error messages.  When I try to run mcs 
however I get:

=======================================================
karypid@grads-d5-pc-2:~/Code/Mono/install/bin> ./mcs
The assembly corlib.dll was not found or could not be loaded.
It should have been installed in the 
`/laptop-home/Code/Mono/install/lib' directory.
=======================================================

Obviously, it's because:

=======================================================
karypid@grads-d5-pc-2:~/Code/Mono/install/bin> ls -l 
~/Code/Mono/install/lib/*.dll
-rw-r--r--    1 karypid  users           0 May 29 22:49 
/laptop-home/Code/Mono/install/lib/System.Data.dll
-rw-r--r--    1 karypid  users           0 May 29 22:49 
/laptop-home/Code/Mono/install/lib/System.Drawing.dll
-rw-r--r--    1 karypid  users           0 May 29 22:49 
/laptop-home/Code/Mono/install/lib/System.Web.dll
-rw-r--r--    1 karypid  users           0 May 29 22:49 
/laptop-home/Code/Mono/install/lib/System.Xml.dll
-rw-r--r--    1 karypid  users           0 May 29 22:49 
/laptop-home/Code/Mono/install/lib/System.dll
-rw-r--r--    1 karypid  users           0 May 29 22:49 
/laptop-home/Code/Mono/install/lib/corlib.dll
=======================================================

Am I supposed to obtain these from somewhere else? (e.g. msdn)
