Pieces of Mono that have been implemented:
- * C# compiler: The C# parser can now generate parse
- trees. Next up: semantic analysis, compiler lever optimizations
- and code generation.
+ * C# compiler: The C# compiler is mostly complete, a
+ few features are still missing (for a list, check the
+ C# compiler web page.
+
+ * The Mono JIT engine (mono. The JIT engine is
+ the real
+ virtual machine that we support. It is
+ currently functional, and we are improving its speed,
+ and making it feature complete.
+
+ * A CIL bytecode interpreter (mint). This
+ currently can be used to run most .NET programs
+ (modulo the fact that our class libraries are not
+ complete enough).
- * Metadata library: Can currently parse and load
- information from .NET modules (executables and DLL
- files). It has a few bugs outstanding (table
- dimension computation is incorrect).
+ mint can currently run the Mono C# compiler and
+ the compiler generates valid code.
- Parsing of Exception tables is missing.
+ We use mint as a reference implementation of
+ the runtime environment and to quickly support
+ non-Intel platforms.
- It lacks Token to (Table, Index) mapping, but this
- should be trivial to write.
+ * Metadata library: Can currently parse
+ and load information from .NET modules (executables
+ and DLL files).
* Disassembler: Can disassemble .NET modules. Still
lacking exception handling as well as useful debugging
tools (hex dumping, token dumping).
- * Class Libraries: Only a few classes have been
- implemented.
-
-
- Tasks on the critical path:
-
-
- * Method and Field resolution.
-
- * Bytecode interpreter: Not implemented yet.
-
- * Simple JIT: Not implemented yet.
-
- * Garbage collection engine.
+ * Class Libraries: You can check the current status in the
+ Class Status page.
