1 This contains the C# components of the Mono project.
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.
26 Yacc-based parser generator.
32 Regression test suite for the C# compiler
35 Some notes on the compiler and the class libraries.
38 A copy of nant source code, used during the build process
42 Various small development tools: CorCompare used to compare
43 two assemblies for differences in the API; TypeReflector is
44 a tool used to introspect types from assemblies from the
45 command line; MonoStyle helps you keep your code indendented
46 with the Mono programming style.
48 * Building Individual Directories
49 =================================
51 You can build individual components in the hierarchy by running the command
52 "make", and to install it use "make install".
54 By default, the 2.x profile is built, if you want to build the net 1.1 profile,
55 use the following command:
61 make PROFILE=net_1_1 install
63 To turn on verbose mode in the build (for example to diagnose a
64 problem), you can use the V=1 flag, like this:
71 You can run unit tests in individual components by running the command
72 "make run-test". If you want to run tests for a different profile (say
75 make run-test PROFILE=net_1_1
77 If you want to only run the tests in a single fixture (say
78 'MonoTests.System.TypeTest'), you can use
80 make run-test TEST_HARNESS_FLAGS=/fixture:MonoTests.System.TypeTest
