Hello there,
I'm still on tests for mscoree, and for that I need NET dlls to run the tests with.
The DLLs can be compile with csc.exe, but that needs to be implemented somehow.
Right now there are two ways we could implement that:
Compile DLL at build time (optional build dependency on mono)
Compile DLL at runtime (wine-mono would need to ship csc.exe, native .NET
already has it)
I'm not sure which way is preferred, both would be feasible, I guess.
Which one should I take?
Vincent already suggested option 2 (https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2018-July/129995.html). I'm inclined to agree for a few reasons: A) This avoids a dependency on mono. B) It gives us a good reason to provide csc.exe, which would allow wine-mono to more closely match .Net.
