[Mono-list] linux, binfmts:Unexpected behavior

[mabra at manfbraun.de]

Hi !
 
Thanks, but: NO ! This would be too late to load associated assemblies the
usual way.
It would require me to change each's tool's source.
 
Ether I misunderstood how binfmt is working, or, it is probbaly a bug.
Assemblies loaded from an executable are usually always in the exe's
directory [or in the GAC].
 
If someone has more infos about this, let me now.
 
Thanks and
best regards,

Could you just set the current directory manually with something like:
 
var appDirectory =
Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location);
Directory.SetCurrentDirectory(appDirectory);
 
(not tested)

Hi All !

I moved over a lot of utilities from windows to linux, but starting them
using "mono ..." is a pain and luckily, I discovered "binfmts".

The execubales are started, but their expected path is just wrong.


So, a manually given complete path, works just fine:

myuser> mono /usr/share/WakeTheBox/WakeTheBox.exe hel
AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory: /usr/share/WakeTheBox/


Running via "binfmts" looks strange:

myuser> WakeTheBox.exe hel
AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory: /usr/sbin/


Any idea to change this, would be really great. It is completely
impracticable to give
each executable a separate startfile. It looks to me, as if "binfmts" just
run the
executables with a wrong configured path.

I am with mono 2.10.8.1 on Ubuntu 12.04.

Best regards,
