For any .Net version (1.1, 2.0, 3.5)? Does that also count for service packs? I take it your recent work on mscoree should fake a dotnet installation?
Any .NET version. Mono 2.6 supports all of those (see http://www.mono-project.com/Compatibility).
My work on mscoree so far has done basically nothing. There is a Dotnet section in wine.inf that installs some registry keys that satisfy some installers.
- Someone other than me, please try to make a Windows build of Mono
and run the Mono test suite under Wine. I want to make sure that the instructions make sense and that someone other than me can do this.
I'll try to do that this in the next few days/weekend.
Thanks.
The compatibility information basically indicates that Mono can substitute for .NET below version 3.0. 3.0 and higher still needs Microsoft's implementation.
How would you handle hybridizing Mono with Microsoft's framework?
