[Mono-list] Delphi.NET exes do not work on Mono...

Hi all,
   I just installed mono ( http://www.go-mono.org ) on my Windows 
machine and tried to run the Delphi.NET demos found @ 
http://dotnet.borland.com ) on your VM. For those who may ( or may not 
be wondering ) Delphi.NET is an Object Pascal compiler ( still in beta 
), that was recently released by Borland ( http://www.borland.com ) as 
part of the Delphi 7 release.

It would appear that the required parts of
System.Runtime.CompilerServices have not yet been implemented as these 
Delphi.NET executables do not work under Mono, but work fine under the 
Microsoft framework. I could not even get a basic Hello World console 
application program working. All I get is a "Cannot open image 
<application Name>" error, for all the demos I have tried.

Can anyone enlighten me as to if someone is already working on the 
required System.Runtime.CompilerServices  or if there is a schedule for 
this to be implemented.

Thanks in advance,


Dominique Louis.
