[Mono-list] Regarding Recompiling mono/gmcs

[Ashish Jindal]

Hi,

I tried to recompile mono/mcs on Windows under cygwin. I'm really stuck...
I land into only one of the following three scenarios:

1. glib2-dev installed: Compilation stops, not compatible with glib2-dev
2. glib2 not installation: Compilation stops, glib2 required
3. glib2 installed (not thru cygwin but thru direct installation from
gtk.org) -- I am able to compile gmcs but when I try to run it, it gives the
following error:


---------------------------------------------------------------------
Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: The type
initializer for 'Mono.CSharp.Tokenizer' threw an exception. --->

---------------------------------------------------------------------

The program that I'm trying to compile is the traditional HelloWorld:


---------------------------------------------------------------------
public class HelloWorld
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        System.Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");
    }
}
---------------------------------------------------------------------


Any help would be appreciated....
