- Contains documentation and the web site contents.
+1. Compilation and Installation
+===============================
- mono/
- The core of the executable.
+ If you obtained this package as an officially released tarball,
+ this is very simple, use configure and make:
- metadata/
- The library to deal with executables and libraries for
- .NET
+ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
+ make
+ make install
- dis/
- CIL executable Disassembler
+ If you obtained this as a snapshot, you will need an existing
+ Mono installation. To upgrade your installation do:
- cli/
- Common code for the JIT and the interpreter.
+ ./autogen --prefix=/usr/local
+ make fullbuild
- cil/
- Common Intermediate Representation, XML
- definition of the CIL bytecodes.
+2. Using Mono
+=============
- interp/
- Interpreter for CLI executables.
+ Once you have installed the software, you can run a few programs:
-* Using Mono
+ * runtime engine
- Once you have installed the software, you can run a few programs:
+ mono program.exe
+ or
+ mint program.exe
- monodis program.exe
+ * C# compiler
- That will dump the bytecodes for program.exe. Monodis support
- a number of options that dumps various metadata tables
- (chapter 23 of the Partition III).
+ mcs program.cs
- You can try the interpreter like this:
+ * CIL Disassembler
- mono-int program.exe
+ monodis program.exe
+
+ See the man pages for mono(1), mint(1), monodis(1) and mcs(2)
+ for further details.
+3. Directory Roadmap
+====================
+
+ doc/
+ Contains documentation and the web site contents.
+ mono/
+ The core of the Mono Runtime.
+ metadata/
+ The object system and metadata reader.
+ jit/
+ The Just in Time Compiler.
+ dis/
+ CIL executable Disassembler
+ cli/
+ Common code for the JIT and the interpreter.
+ io-layer/
+ The I/O layer and system abstraction for
+ emulating the .NET IO model.
+ cil/
+ Common Intermediate Representation, XML
+ definition of the CIL bytecodes.
+ interp/
+ Interpreter for CLI executables.
+ arch/
+ Architecture specific portions.
