Testing and Installation
- ------------------------
+ ------------------------
You can run (part of) the mono and mcs testsuites with the command:
Whether you want to build libraries that are still not
completed (The 2.0 APIs). It defaults to `yes'.
+ --with-moonlight=yes,no
+
+ Whether you want to generate the Silverlight/Moonlight
+ libraries and toolchain in addition to the default
+ (1.1 and 2.0 APIs).
+
+ This will produce the `smcs' compiler which will reference
+ the Silvelright modified assemblies (mscorlib.dll,
+ System.dll, System.Code.dll and System.Xml.Core.dll) and turn
+ on the LINQ extensions for the compiler.
+
+ This option defaults to `no' and it is considered pre-alpha.
+
--with-libgdiplus=installed,sibling,<path>
This is used to configure where should Mono look for
Or you can specify a path to a libgdiplus.
+ --disable-shared-memory
+
+ Use this option to disable the use of shared memory in
+ Mono (this is equivalent to setting the MONO_DISABLE_SHM
+ environment variable, although this removes the feature
+ completely).
+
+ Disabling the shared memory support will disable certain
+ features like cross-process named mutexes.
+
--enable-minimal=LIST
Use this feature to specify optional runtime
Manual pages for the various Mono commands and programs.
+ samples/
+
+ Some simple sample programs on uses of the Mono
+ runtime as an embedded library.
+
scripts/
Scripts used to invoke Mono and the corresponding program.
A directory that contains the Makefiles that link the
mono/ and mcs/ build systems.
+ ../olive/
+
+ If the directory ../olive is present (as an
+ independent checkout) from the Mono module, that
+ directory is automatically configured to share the
+ same prefix than this module gets.
