[Mono-list] Problems with Visual Studio 2005 compiled code

[Eric Morgan]

Lupus,

I can send you the executable and libraries, but I cannot send the source
code.  Would you prefer if I emailed it or uploaded a tar.gz to our site?
The size is around 8mb I believe.

Jonathan:

Can you please explain what PE+ means?  At first, I targetted x64 platform.
Then, I tried "Any CPU".  The reason is, because even with a 64bit version
of mono, on a 64bit machine, we are still getting out of memory exceptions
when our program gets too large, even when there's plenty of memory
available (like.. 8gb workstations).  We assumed it was because the compiled
source code is still compiled for a 32bit platform and hits that address
space limit, which is why we're trying to compile like this in the first
place.

To make  the csharp code native, would I need to compile with mcs/gmcs on
linux?


Thank you for your help!

Eric Morgan
