We should try to reconstruct it for 2.0. For example, Filesystem.watchers is still missing. The API surface increased quite a bit in 2.0 – so as the gap. My current thinking is to fork the build to add FreeBSD flavor and throw “PlatformNotSupported” and then finding somebody to work on implementation. > Tomas, from reading through your instructions, there seems to be two > obstacles and they are both managed code? > - corelib - dotnet/coreclr/src/mscorelib seems to be the corelib you > are talking about? > - corefx - managed code > > If that's true, then we should definitely give mono a shot at bringing > those up. I'm downloading the dotnet/coreclr now. And yes, that is mscorelib. I did ask around and Mono used to be supported for building. It was claimed unstable and removed from build. You will need to get compilation as well as msbuild working right. For now, I’m going to ignore building part, and I’ll focus on getting coreCLR & coreFX working well. On the side, I’ll try to shepherd changes to cli & msbuild so they can properly recognize FreeBSD as a platform.
