* System.Windows.Forms Currently Windows.Forms support is not finished. The System.Windows.Forms effort is taking two paths:
System.Windows.Forms is currently being implemented using the Win32 API, we will be using WineLib on Unix systems to emulate the Win32 API. This means that those who want to contribute to the effort can develop and test classes today using Windows and P/Invoke calls to Win32 and we will then just run the result on Unix. In terms of integrating visually with the desktop, we are hoping to contribute to the Wine project a mechanism to make it use the Gtk+ themes on X11 and Cocoa on MacOS to render the widgets, and get the native look and feel on each of these platforms. |
