Hello again ;)

i'm wondering if mono, the opensource .net platform for linux is a good idea to install.
Somebody knows problems with this?

I want to install it on a productions server, so its important to know.

Or maybe you know a better idea for this? Just want to be sure that i dont start to install/configurate and discover that its
not good to install because of known issues.

I had it with suphp, dont want it to happen twice :wink:

friendly greets,
tom

What kinds of issues do concern you?
Things like http://www.mono-project.com/WinForms_CodeOwners and/or http://www.mono-project.com/Todo ?

I really wanted to get started with Mono so I could play around with C# on Linux/Mac. It confused the hell outta me though so I gave up aftr about an hour :P

I haven't had any problems with mono.. (But if you're going to try and run programs that were developed for win32 you may be disappointed because it doesn't have GDI...)

Anyway, compiling a simple application would be:

gmcs Blah.cs -o Blah.exe

And running it:

mono Blah.exe

(For nicer things, like tweaking binfmt you'd better consult http://www.mono-project.com/Guide:Runni ... plications)
