[Mono-list] How do you use mkbundle2 for Mac OS X successfully?

1)      a) When I double-click the output file of mkbundle, it auto opens a
Terminal window (It is Applications/Utilities/Terminal.  About Terminal
shows it is version 2.0.2) and outputs the following lines:

Last login: Wed Feb 17 12:42:09 on ttys001

$ /Program\ Files/My\ Software/MacFormShow/testDynStatic ; exit;

 

After I close the WinForm it does not auto quit Terminal but outputs the
following:

logout

 

[Process completed]

 

Do you know of another/better way to launch a bundled application?

 

 

2)      What do you mean by "The unbundled WinForms app will hang just like
that"   I did bundle it with mkbundle so I thought it shouldn't hang (was
hoping anyway).

I am hoping someone has sample code or a link for this and in c# would be
really nice.

a.       Do you have any more info on how to use the "Winform support
method" 

b.      Do you have an more info on how to "handle shutdown Apple Event
manually (see AEInstallEventHandler(), kAEQuitApplication).

 

 

3)      You are correct I don't care about the warnings if the application
runs and quits properly.

 

Thanks for all your help.

I'm not sure what are you talking about as I never experienced this. 
Does it happen only when you run bundled app?  Does it output anything 
to the window?  BTW, could it probably be X11 window, not one from 
Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal?

This is unrelated to use of mkbundle.  The unbundled WinForms app will 
hang just like that.  To handle this you'll need support from WinForms 
or handle shutdown Apple Event manually (see AEInstallEventHandler(), 
kAEQuitApplication).

But are you really bothered by these warnings?
