Deploying .NET stub in Mono

  • 1.  Deploying .NET stub in Mono

    Posted Mon September 22, 2003 10:40 PM

    Has R&D tried to deploy the .NET client stub generated and subsequently compiled using Mono (Open source .NET implementation on Linux)

    would this be possible ? I will look fro your comments. This may be an implementation strategy to consider for one of my customers.

    Thank you. I look forward to your reply.

    Hi Amit,

    According to EntireX documentation the .Net [generated] client applications require the “generic .net wrapper runtime” which provides marshalling, unmarshalling and connecting to Broker. This runtime components requires a real DLL (erx.dll). So the client side thing is not 100% pure .Net which means it won’t work under Mono. Mono does not implement all classes of .Net anyway and certainly as far as I can tell the interop stuff isn’t there.

    One final thing: even if this did work: it would not be supported.

    Hope this helps.
