Visual Studio Build Setup for Mono's Managed Code
=================================================
The scripts in this directory are used to create the various .csproj
for each one of the modules in Mono. To avoid accidentally making
changes on the Makefile system that is not reflected on the csproj
system, the .csproj files are generated from the actual Makefile
settings.
This requires a couple of steps:
* Extract the order, compiler and compilation flags for all
managed code in Mono on Linux by using the existing Makefile
system.
* Generate csproj files from the previous step
The idea is to ensure that we do not miss any compilation flag,
define, resource, reference, icon or any other element that might be
necessary to build the Mono class libraries.
* Extracting the Compilation Metadata
The first step is to extract the compilation metadata from the
existing Makefiles. This is done in stages, first a fully
working Mono compilation setup is required, and second the data
is extracted.
The extraction is done like this, from the toplevel Mono
directory run:
make update-csproj
With this input, it is possible to generate an XML file, to do
this do:
make package-inputs
This will generate order.xml, this contains the ordered list in
which directories must be compiled as well as the command line
options used to build it.
* Generate .csproj and .sln files
Run the genproj.exe executable in this directory.
cd msvc/scripts/
/cygdrive/c/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v4.0.30319/MSBuild.exe genproj.csproj
./genproj.exe
One output of genproj is the solutions for the successive profiles,
from net_2_0.sln to from net_4.5.sln
The command
./genproj.exe -h
lists a couple of options, notably to limit the scope of
the output solutions for each profiles to System*.dll assemblies
and dependencies.
* Compiling from Visual Studio
Before you try to compile from Visual Studio, you are *strongly*
advised to set the maximum number of parallel project builds
to 1 (Tools -> Options -> Projects and Solutions -> Build and Run)
Due to the iterative building process for some of Mono's
assemblies, there can be clashes writing to /obj/Debug for
some projects
* KNOWN ISSUES
* Many assemblies still fail to compile, due to missing project
references output by genproj, or other issues yet to determine
* The first build of a solution may have a large number of
failing compilations, more than subsequent solution Builds
* The .NET 2.0 profile assemblies end up targetting the
v4.0 runtime, even when requesting 2.0 in the csproj file
