I can't find the solution
How to install Nemerle on Mono
I've got Nemerle Studio , But I want to try mono with it.
Maybe I will make something for Linux later, now I want to try it on windows.
I hear the latest builds don't work with Mono, due to some System.Reflection.Emit issues there.
You just need to get Nemerle binaries, they work fine on Mono, just don't compile.
Soon there will be official binary downloads on google code page.
Mono is able to compile Nemerle compiler.
You just need the latest Mono from master.
2.8.1 is a suitable version.

I am building a solution with CMake that uses wxWidgets. I have downloaded the source code for 3.1.0 and compiled it without issue. However, there are three libraries that my solution needs that are not in 3.1.0: dbgrid, mono, and odbc. I tried compiling 3.0.2, but VStudio 2015 will not compile the source code because it is outdated. I tried building 3.0.2 with GCC, but the Makefile was not recognized.
Any thoughts/suggestions on how I can build or find these three libraries, or build wxWidgets 3.0.2?
Thank you.
You should use the components with the same version known to work with your "solution". For example, use the same wxWidgets version that worked without issues.
On a more detailed note, ODBC component, including dbgrid, have been removed from anything later than wxWidgets 2.8; I have no idea what "mono" is but it doesn't sound like anything in wxWidgets. So going with any 3.x version is not going to help you. You might need to dig up version 2.8.12 from somewhere.
Also, for the sake of completeness, I have no idea what "the Makefile was not recognized" means, but GCC is a pretty reliable way of building wxWidgets, regardless the version of either of the two or the flavour of the former.
i'm developer of AudioCuesheetEditor, an application for editing audio cuesheets. The new Version should be able to play back sound, so I would like to use gstreamer as backend. I investigated a bit in gstreamer and found out, that I need to use version 1.x with gstreamer-sharp 0.99.x binding. No problem, downloaded gstreamer-sharp 0.99.0, opened the solution with monodevelop (on linux) or xamarin (on windows) and tried to build the dll, but that didn't work. I get the error "namespace Gst.GLib" not found.
I'm developing with xamarin/monodevelop and need to have a portable app (working with mono/.net).
Can anyone help me, get gstreamer-sharp build?
Thanks in advance!
gstreamer-sharp is currently not supported on Windows, however you can compile the managed parts on linux and compile the glue on Windows using Visual Studio:
Install gtk-sharp 3.0 from https://github.com/mono/gtk-sharp
Compile gstreamer-sharp using ./autogen.sh && make
Take the compiled glib-sharp and gstreamer-sharp binary and all .c files from sources/glue/
Download and install gstreamer binaries from http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/pkg/windows/1.2.2/ and install the development and binary packages for the architecture you want to compile for. You can use gstreamer 1.0 or 1.2.
Use the Visual Studio template from the gstreamer-devel package and change the project type to library. Add the c files taken from the sources/glue folder and compile the glue library. The library should be called libgstreamersharpglue-1.0.0.dll
Put the managed parts together with the native symbols.
EDIT:
Compiling the glue is now easier on Windows! Someone set up a project which can compile the glue using Visual Studio on Windows. I have a fork which has binaries at https://github.com/xDarkice/libgstreamersharpglue
gstreamer-sharp uses autotools for its build system, you cannot build it with an IDE. Please do the autotools dance:
./autogen.sh --prefix=/the/prefix/where/you/want/to/install
make
sudo make install
After an upgrade to the new Haskell Platform, my existing wxHaskell programs are broken.
They all seem to now require wxWidgets 2.9, for which I can't find any binary versions.
wxPack has 2.8, and beyond that one has to get a compiler and build it locally from what I see.
There are tutorials on this from various sources, each a few pages long, with various advice on setup, changing configurations, etc. Install wxConfig, install minGW compilers, setup configurations, rebuild, etc.
Is there any source of a simple binary install? I'd hope for some simple apt-get or cabal like tool, Haskell library tools (on Windows?) seem less integrated than others that I'm familiar with.
(Update) I did install and compile wxWidgets locally, and still cannot get the wxHaskell components to install. I'm sure that all of this just requires some fairly simple details, but again after some time already, hope not to have to spend a lot more time on this, and wish it was more automated!
Configuring wxc-0.90.0.3...
Configuring wxc to build against wxWidgets 2.9
setup.exe: Missing dependencies on foreign libraries:
* Missing C libraries: wxmsw29ud_all, wxtiffd, wxjpegd, wxpngd, wxzlibd,
wxregexud, wxexpatd, wxregexud
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system packages that
provide these libraries (you may need the "-dev" versions). If the libraries
are already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the
flags --extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where they are.
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
wx-0.90.0.1 depends on wxc-0.90.0.3 which failed to install.
wxc-0.90.0.3 failed during the configure step. The exception was: ExitFailure 1
wxcore-0.90.0.1 depends on wxc-0.90.0.3 which failed to install.
Yes, you can. CodeLite (C++ IDE I use) was recently upgraded to use wx29.
Since there are no binaries yet on repo, Dave set up some. Find all instruction in CodeLite's wiki below
wxWidgets 2.9 Packages and Repositories
If you are using windows Just go to download page for Codelite and download codelite with wxWidgets. Install it, copy the installed wxWidgets directory wherever it is needed!
Also it seems like there are official binaries. I have never tested download anything there so try yourself. The link is this one
Feel free to ask any question
Hopefully this is a silly question and there's really a simple solution somewhere out there but...
Has anybody successfully gotten DbLinq to play nicely with Mono 2.4 on Mac OS X 10.5?
I've got my SQLite database ready but for the life of me, I can't find sqlmetal to generate my objects.
I'm guessing I might have to download a previous version of Mono that included sqlmetal, build and install it, and then just use the code generated from that version on Mono 2.4...but I'm hoping to avoid it at all costs.
I'd avoid using DBLinq for production code... many of Linq-To-SQL's features aren't implemented, and walking through the source code shows a low level of maturity... many of the methods are not implemented or marked as "unterminated".
...you've been warned!
Using the pre-compiled binary in this case just doesn't work.
To get a properly generated DbLinq data layer, you have to use the sqlmetal tool included with Mono (but, apparently, not with the pre-compiled binaries for OS X). You have to pull down the Mono trunk (along with all the dependencies) and build Mono from the source.
Once you build and install Mono from source, you should have the sqlmetal tool. Once you generate your code, it's as easy as including the generated *.cs file and importing Mono.Data.Sqlite.
Mono 2.6 will include for the first time a preview of DbLinq with Mono. You can take it out for a spin today if you install DbLinq on your own side-by-side with your current Mono setup.
Does anyone know if you can run NUnit on Mono? The reason I ask is because on the download page it says:
For some releases, we provide a zipped package for use under Mono.
However, the only release that actually has a separate mono release (judging by its label that says "mono:" and then shows the .zip) is the ancient 2.2. NUnit's most recent version is 2.4.8 so I would really rather not use that old of a version.
Can you use the recent version of NUnit on Mono? If not, is there anything I could do to get it to work? What exactly makes something Mono runnable?
Mono 2.4 will ship with NUnit 2.4.8, and has been in use by the Mono project for their tests for several months, so it should work pretty well.

To answer any other "Will x run on mono..." they've produced a tool called the Mono Migation Analyser.
It can be found here and will show you what methods (if any) mono is missing to run your application.
