[Mono-winforms-list] RE: porting System.Windows.Forms applications fromWindows to Linux

[vijaya raghava mutharaju]

   Hi,

          What was the fix in System.Windows.Forms.dll ? Is it related to
OpenFileDialog class ? Is it in version 1.1.13.2_0 ?

           I had a similar thought regarding the UI icons. But it was just a
guess. Windows uses different default icon for Forms while Mono uses its
default icon that of a monkey. This doubt again recurred when there was a
term Mime Icon in the Stack trace.

        How should I get around it?

            If I change source code in Linux of an application which was
built in Windows like what Iam doing, then how should I build it in Linux
again ?

         Thank you.
