The whole idea behind .NET and Mono (the CLI standard) is that you can
compile with one and run on the other. In theory, you shouldn't need to
compile with the Mono C# compiler in order for your programs to run on
Mono. I have successfully written C# programs in Visual Studio .NET
2003, copied the assemblies (.exe's) to Linux and run under Mono with
perfect results. In other words, you shouldn't need a "Mono" target in
Visual Studio.

That being said, your SQLDMO.dll is a Win32 DLL - not managed code.
Therefore it probably will not work in the Linux environment. There may
be an open source Linux replacement, but not that I know of.
=20
For all the open source coders, I have found SQLDMO to be buggy and
poorly documented. I believe that all it does can be reproduced with
(more or less) standard T-SQL. This would be a good thing to
re-implement using managed code.

Subject: [Mono-list] Microsoft .Net

We currently have a system written in Microsoft c#.Net, what we are
aiming to do is distribute our product on linux.
Will it be possible to compile our product in MS C#.Net and copy the
files on to linux and it work ?
Or will we have to make the code compile within mono first.
What would be nice is in the Debug/Release options in VS.Net we had
another for Linux - Mono which used the mono compiler to compile our
code or someother way to check within VS.Net that it will be compatible.
=20
If all this is possible we use SQLDMO.Dll for getting information about
sql servers on the network will this be possible to use from within
linux.

Thanks in advance
