2019-10-21mono6: add the missing bits for netbsd/aarch64 support.maya2-1/+21
unfortunately, mono-sgen crashes a lot, most likely due to pmap bugs. it takes many retries to get further in the build.
2019-10-10mono6: help the next person to try the SunOS build.maya1-2/+2
Don't disable sgen after we enabled it in configure.ac (I'm not sure the non-sgen non-boehm option is even supported). Disable dtrace, needs a makefile fixup and is an optional thing, so let's leave it for later.
2019-10-09mono6: update to mono 6.4.0.198maya12-101/+81
- Use python tool.mk instead of searching more files to patch @PYTHONBIN@ in. - Add some preliminary ideas for how to get netbsd/aarch64 and solaris working. it shouldn't be enough to complete a build. (They can't use Mono's outdated libgc) notable for us, this release re-adds FreeBSD supports. Mono 6.4.0 release notes: Highlights C# compiler support for C# 8 language version .NET Standard 2.1 support Updated libgdiplus to 6.0.2 Notarized macOS installer package In Depth Runtime Hardened Runtime and Notarization support on macOS The Mono binary installed by the .pkg for macOS is now using the Hardened Runtime capabilities and the package was notarized to comply with Appleā€™s new restrictions: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/notarizing_your_app_before_distribution. This allows the package to work on the upcoming macOS 10.15 Catalina without showing warning dialogs. Interpreter improvements The Mono interpreter was updated to support the Windows operating system. We also completed a lot of groundwork for upcoming future optimizations in the interpreter, like constant folding. Bitness independent AOT cross compiler The Ahead-Of-Time (AOT) cross compiler was updated to no longer require being executed with the same bitness that it should generate code for. This means a 64bit Mono can now emit AOT code for 32bit targets. This work was mainly done to support executing the AOT cross compiler on macOS 10.15 Catalina (which is 64bit only) as we still need to generate code for 32bit targets like older iPhone and Apple Watch devices. WebAssembly We continue to work on making our WebAssembly support better. Various sets of issues with the debugger have been resolved in this release and general performance and feature work is happening as well. LLVM improvements We now leave it up to the LLVM framework to insert safepoints. Later optimizations can understand safepoints then which leads to better generated code. See https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/11789 The LLVM backend is also supported on the Windows operating system now. PPC JIT optimizations The PowerPC JIT received a bunch of optimization from community contributor Calvin Buckley (@NattyNarwhal). Experimental build support for Fuchsia A very minimal and experimental support for building Mono targeting the Fuchsia OS landed in the build system. Class Libraries .NET Standard 2.1 support We updated our class libraries to support the latest additions to .NET Standard. You can now run a library compiled against the .NET Standard 2.1 specification on Mono. CoreFX integration We continued to replace some of our classes with the implementation from CoreFX to improve performance and compatibility with .NET. libgdiplus update to 6.0.2 The libgdiplus native library is used for implementing System.Drawing on Unix platforms. This release contains many important improvements from our community members. Special thanks go to Hugh Bellamy (@hughbe), Frederik Carlier (@qmfrederik) and Filip Navara (@filipnavara) for their awesome contributions! System.Windows.Forms More fixes and layout improvements for different controls made by external contributors have landed in this release . Tools C# 8 language version support in csc and msbuild The C# compiler and msbuild tooling were updated to versions that support the final C# 8 language specification. The Default Interface Methods (DIM) feature also received a few runtime enhancements. NuGet Bundled NuGet version has been upgraded to 5.2 RTM.

2019-08-25Add mono 6.0.0.313.maya25-0/+3793
The Mono Project is an open development initiative sponsored by Ximian that is working to develop an open source, Unix version of the Microsoft .NET development platform. Its objective is to enable Unix developers to build and deploy cross-platform .NET Applications. The project will implement various technologies developed by Microsoft that have now been submitted to the ECMA for standardization.
