1 This contains code written in C# of Mono, it contains:
3 * Compilers written in C#
7 * Regression Test Suites
9 To install this source code, look at the INSTALL file in the `mono'
10 package module which drives the compilation of this directory.
16 Rules, configuration and makefile components to build
23 Sample programs that should generate errors by the C# compiler.
27 The Mono C# compiler with Generics support. This will
28 become the default in Mono 2.0.
31 Yacc-based parser generator.
34 The Mono C# compiler (1.0 + 2.0 minus generics).
37 Regression test suite for the C# compiler
40 Some notes on the compiler and the class libraries.
43 A copy of nant source code, used during the build process
47 Various small development tools: CorCompare used to compare
48 two assemblies for differences in the API; TypeReflector is
49 a tool used to introspect types from assemblies from the
50 command line; MonoStyle helps you keep your code indendented
51 with the Mono programming style.
53 * Building Individual Directories
54 =================================
56 You can build individual components in the hierarchy by running the command
57 "make", and to install it use "make install".
59 By default, the 2.x profile is built, if you want to build the net 1.1 profile,
60 use the following command:
66 make PROFILE=net_1_1 install
68 To turn on verbose mode in the build (for example to diagnose a
69 problem), you can use the V=1 flag, like this:
76 You can run unit tests in individual components by running the command
77 "make run-test". If you want to run tests for a different profile (say
80 make run-test PROFILE=net_1_1
82 If you want to only run the tests in a single fixture (say
83 'MonoTests.System.TypeTest'), you can use
85 make run-test TEST_HARNESS_FLAGS=/fixture:MonoTests.System.TypeTest
