+ +* Binaries for other platforms. + + Already daily volunteer's made binaries: + + + +* Snapshots -*** Snapshots - The daily snapshots are available here. These - snapshots are done every day at 10pm EST (Boston Time). + Nightly snapshots of + the CVS repository are made every day at 10pm EST (Boston + Time). These are not guaranteed to build, they are just a + snapshot of the tree. - They are not guaranteed to build, but most of the time they - should. They should give you a window to see what we are up to. + The anoncvs mirrors provided by + Hispalinux are updated every six hours. - You might also want to track our development using the mono-cvs-list - mailing list. +* Compiling the code - -*** Released and tested packages + There are a number of ways of compiling Mono - -** Installing the software + (which is an easy way to get the latest CVS information) + + +* Compiling with scripts - To install and work on the compiler and the class libraries, - follow these instructions: + There are scripts to help build mono for both Unix and Windows. Get + mono-build.sh for Unix, or mono-build-w32.sh for Windows. + These scripts automate the installation of GLIB and pkgconfig + (building from source on Unix, and using binary packages + provided by the GIMP for Windows project on Windows.) To use + the script, follow these simple steps: - * Untar the MCS distribution (see below for information). + The script requires wget on either platform, and building the + software requires make, gcc, automake, autoconf, and libtool. + You should install these packages from your distribution or + with the cygwin installer. You should also take care of setting + the right environment variables as the PKG_CONFIG_FLAGS, etc. - * Go into the MCS directory and type `make windows' - + The script will download required packages from + www.go-mono.com and do a cvs checkout of mono in the current + directory. IMPORTANT!: The cvs server chosen defaults to + anonymous cvs; + set your CVSROOT environment variable before running the script to + select a particular cvs server. - To compile the mono runtime on windows: + +** Building the software manually - + + +*** Notes on compiling GLIB 2.0 and pkg-config from source: + + +
    + + * Some people observed problems with autoconf 2.52. Installing + autoconf 2.13 helped in those cases (don't forget to do a + `make maintainer-clean' after the update). + + * Download, compile and install pkg-config from source. + (I had to change line 674 of + pkg-config-0.8.0/glib-1.2.8/gstrfuncs.c from + extern char *strsignal (int sig); to + extern const char *strsignal (int sig);. + 
    -./configure

+cd pkg-config-0.8.0
+./configure --prefix=/usr
 make
 make install
    + + * Download, compile and install libiconv from source.
    + If you dont have MS Visual C/C++ 4.0 or 5.0 or 6.0 you can also try + the binary package available at + http://www.gimp.org/win32/libiconv-dev-20001007.zip. + + + * Download, compile and install the + + glib 2.0 from source. +
- + +** Upgrading + + To upgrade your Mono installation from CVS, it is very + important that you update your Mono and MCS modules from CVS + at the same time. Failure to do so might result in a + problematic installation as the runtime and the class + libraries will be out of sync. + + Run the following commands to update your CVS tree (more + details in Cvs and Mono and the AnonCVS and Mono pages). + + 
+	(cd mono; cvs update -dP .)
+	(cd mcs; cvs update -dP .)
+
+ + Once you have updated your sources, remove any cached + assemblies or old binaries from the Mono "runtime" directory, + and then compile each component: + + 
+	(cd mono/runtime; rm *exe *dll)
+	(cd mono; make)
+	(cd mcs; make)
+
+ + Now you can install the result: + + 
+	(cd mono; make install)
+
+ Notice that following the above procedure does not require you + to manually install the software in the `mcs' directory, as + the relevant files will be copied by the `mono' makefiles.
