[Mono-list] Configuring xbuild on Jenkins server hosted on windows or Linux

[Marco Ridoni]

It works mostly the same, I use this same workflow, and the main difficulty
lies in the differences between the build environments that can break the
build, i.e:

- Linux is case-sensitive, Windows is not, so pay attention to filenames
- If you have always built on Windows, pay attention to "stray" files,
needed for the build but not present in your SVN/Git/whatever repository
- If you run external tools during your build, check that they are
available on Linux too, and that their arguments (paths, etc.) can work on
Linux

In case you have to (and can) work around these, just create a new build
configuration, or a different solution file to be used by Jenkins. As a
rule, I set up Jenkins to make a fresh checkout of the source tree and
build from there, so any incompatibilities can be spotted on the fly.
