Hi,
Can anyone explain what the effect of specifying the -nostdlib option is =
for the Mcs (using the Mono runtime or the .NET runtime) ?
For the MS.NET compiler it allows you to specify another mscorlib.dll =
that should be linked instead of the .NET Framework mscorlib.dll.
But for Mcs this does not seems to work : when you want to build an =
assembly using the Mono runtime you must use "mono mcs.exe [options]" =
although in my opinion should be able to build an assembly using the =
Mono system assemblies by using the following commandline :
mcs.exe -target:library -nostdlib -noconfig -out:log4net.dll =
-r:corlib.dll -r:System.dll -r:System.Xml.dll -r:System.Web.dll =
-recurse:*.cs
But apparently it does not seems to link to the corlib.dll again, =
because I get the following compile errors :
error CS0518: The predefined type `System.Object' is not defined
error CS0518: The predefined type `System.ValueType' is not defined
error CS0518: The predefined type `System.Attribute' is not defined
error CS0518: The predefined type `System.IComparable' is not defined
error CS0518: The predefined type `System.ICloneable' is not defined
error CS0518: The predefined type `System.IConvertible' is not defined
error CS0518: The predefined type `System.Collections.IEnumerable' is =
not defined
error CS0518: The predefined type `System.Collections.ICollection' is =
not defined
error CS0518: The predefined type `System.Collections.IEnumerator' is =
not defined
......
Can anyone explain what the -nostdlib option is for then, and how I can =
compile compile an assembly with the Mono system assemblies without =
using Mono.exe Mcs.exe ?
Gert
