* Project Status
Pieces of Mono that have been implemented:
<ul>
* C# compiler: The C# compiler is mostly complete, a
few features are still missing (for a list, check the
<a href="c-sharp.html">C# compiler</a> web page.
* The Mono JIT engine (<b>mono</b>. The JIT engine is
the real
virtual machine that we support. It is
currently functional, and we are improving its speed,
and making it feature complete.
* A CIL bytecode interpreter (<b>mint</b>). This
currently can be used to run most .NET programs
(modulo the fact that our class libraries are not
complete enough).
<b>mint</b> can currently run the Mono C# compiler and
the compiler generates valid code.
We use <b>mint</b> as a reference implementation of
the runtime environment and to quickly support
non-Intel platforms.
* Metadata library: Can currently parse
and load information from .NET modules (executables
and DLL files).
* Disassembler: Can disassemble .NET modules. Still
lacking exception handling as well as useful debugging
tools (hex dumping, token dumping).
* Class Libraries: You can check the current status in the
<a href="class-status.html">Class Status page</a>.
</ul>
