Introducing Mono Confusion

Question

I am trying to use the following instructions to embed a Mono runtime in a C ++ program. http://www.mono-project.com/Embedding_Mono

To initialize the runtime, you must call mono_jit_init with an input parameter named file_name. They say that file_name is the name of the main assembly file. - What do they mean by “main build file”? Is this the name of the C # application I want to run?

A little further, they describe opening an assembly and executing it through a call to mono_domain_assembly_open. This function also takes a file name as an input parameter, and I'm confused about what this file should do. Should it be the same as the previous one?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks,

Mj

Answer 1

mono_jit_init () accepts the file name, which is used to set the domain name (from the file name, with the exception of the directory), the documents are a bit outdated, I will fix them. The used version of the frame will be standard by default, which depends on the mono version.

If you need to initialize a specific version of the framework (2.0 or 4.0), you can use mono_jit_init_version ().
