[Mono-winforms-list] mono on non windows mobiles (arm processor)

I thought that you want to run Mono on J2ME but now I see that you want to
use Mono instead of J2ME.:) Sorry, I did not read your message carefully.

This is about supported platforms:
http://www.mono-project.com/Supported_Platforms

There is (or was recently) a discussion on the mono-list about the same
things (Mono with ARM processor) so you should look at it. If you aren't
subscribed see the archive:

Note that currently only Linux is supported on ARM but usually porting the
runtime to a new OS is easier than porting to a new processor.

Hi Kornel,monoTeam,monoDevelopers
I know the use of j2me or .net compact framework, actually my question was:
is it possible to /have/port/run mono runtime on mobile phones with non
windows OS.
regards
max

J2ME is a Java runtime environment. This means that you only can run Java on
those mobiles. There is no CLI runtime that is written entireli in Java. In
addition J2ME has a lot of limitations over standard Java that makes it
quite impossible to implement CLI in Java.

For example there are no floating point operations, there is little memory,
...

.NET Compact Framework is designed for small computers like SmartPhones that
have a much rich feature set than J2ME, in addition you can run native code
on SmartPhones.
