Yes, I've used mono, No, I haven't used in Puppy.

rarsa; Don't know where to begin... I usually work with premade Puppy versions.
If you know where & what to download & how to set it up, I'll give it a go.
I'd start with a fresh frugal Puppy install, so maybe one is suited for Mono?
Qs; How big is the installed Mono framework? There's also a Mono IDE?

I actually understood that you had the Mono framework installedsunburnt wrote:rarsa; Don't know where to begin...
You actually said "I have, on Puppy with the Mono framework installed.".
See how there is a period after "I'd like to try a .Net app."
You had really surprised me.
I started going through the process. I am pretty sure I got the core framework working and serving ASP.NET pages, but as I've said in other posts, the list of dependencies for the GTK bindings was so long I decided it wasn't worth it. It depends on many Gnome componets.
The instructions for building it are on the Mono web site. MU prepared a Gnome libraries dotpup some time ago, maybe it includes the required dependencies, I haven't tried.
The mono environment is definetivelly on the heavy side
There are several IDEs, last time I checked the most advanced one was "MonoDevelop".
Good luck and keep us posted on your efforts.

Sorry... app. is an abreviation, so the period, the real indicator was the comma
separating the first statement of "WISH", from the second one "NEED".
I'll take a look at your links, I was told Mono didn't need Gnome, but it's
probably Gnome's GTK that's needed for GUI apps., but maybe it needs more.

I compiled MONO a long time ago, it's about 24 megs.
mono-1.1.13.8.tar.gz
I think one needs this also:
libgdiplus-1.1.13.6.tar.gz
I don't recall what else needed added. I"ll double check after dinner.

The "tough" part, as I remember, due to dependencies is GTK# required to create or run GUI applications. That's where I stopped if someone does it, it will be welcome.John Doe wrote:I compiled MONO a long time ago, it's about 24 megs.

Thanks "John"; I down loaded the latest Mono 1.2, I guess it's an exe archive.
If your able to help me integrate it into Puppy it'll be a valuable asset indeed.
What rarsa said about dependencies is just what I've heard, lots of Gnome.
If a lots of Gnome is needed, why chase the parts, just install Gnome-FULL.
After all... this is a M$ like Heavy Duty environment, may as well act like it.

That must be why I get this:
Code: Select all
sh-3.00# mono MyApp.exe
Mono System.Windows.Forms Assembly [$auto_build_revision$]
Keyboard: United States keyboard layout (phantom key version)
Gtk not found (missing LD_LIBRARY_PATH to libgtk-x11-2.0.so?), using built-in colorscheme
I'll give it another shot with my T2 build.
So one can conclude that you are here for what Puppy isn't rather than what Puppy is?muggins wrote:trying to backtrack in my memory how i first stumbled upon puppy, i think it could have been when i googled for anti-bloatware.

This sort of works. It doesn't seem to add the paths to right place. I can't remember exactly where to do it off the top of my head.sunburnt wrote:Thanks "John"; I down loaded the latest Mono 1.2, I guess it's an exe archive.

While I want my puppy to be small and for "big" things I use Fedora, some time ago I wrote my definition of "a distribution
http://rarsa.blogspot.com/2006/04/whats ... -most.html
There I have this paragraph:
So different peopole have different needs. And those needs can be in different dimensions.rarsa wrote:That does not mean that you can only use the applications provided. Think of a distribution as your starting point. The better you choose your distribution according to your needs, the closer you will be to have a computer configured specifically for you.
So, some people may like puppy as the starting point because the route to the end is longer so they will "know" how they built their system.
Others may install a big application in Puppy because everything else in unbloated so the big application runs better for them.
Others could even use puppy because it was the only distro they tried that detected their hardware but they still want/need a bloated system.
Reasons are many including the people not knowing that they should really consider other distros.

yes rarsa,
i suppose some puppies are chihuahua's & some are st. bernards! i'm due to start doing java next week, & am dreading it as i find java over-sized, slow and that it gobbles up ram like the cookie monster.
i'll have to follow your example & try & get to grips with tcl & your gnocl pup.
cheers

Muggins, I agree with you.muggins wrote:i'm stuck here until lob can get his cognitive-dissonance-trans-dimensional machine functioning...but i still think small is beautiful!
Small IS beautiful, and will always be beautiful!
I love small and fast programs and gadgets. So of course I adore things like what the guy at the grc.com site has done with the assembly language programming. Hes a genius. And so is Barry and many other people here with what they have done with Puppylinux.
But the issue is that I am supposed to be practicing forex trading. And another issue is that my forex trader site has moved over to asp.NET with their new website, so every trader can just log on there no matter where they are.
So then I cant practice/trade forex in other ways than with Microsoft. And I just dont want to use Windows, and especially not Vista! I havent even updated that annoying Vista since I got the laptop, which had Vista pre-installed.
So as you maybe understand, my biggest wish right now is to have puppylinux running in ram and a Mono.sfs package that works on that forex trader site.
Anyway, at least I finally found something about Mono today in this forum.
I tried to see if I got IE running in Wine but no luck.
So next step will be to see if I found any way to get something like Mono to work.
Beside that, it will be more and more asp.NET out there on the websites with time, so the best thing would be if some genial programmers managed to make a small package that works on viewing and using asp.NET without Windows.
Always allowed to dream big, huh?
