Does not work on windows because of Mono.Posix dependency #30

Closed BitPuffin closed 8 years ago

BitPuffin commented 8 years ago

Hey I'm trying to use sdb on windows but it started screaming about that it couldn't load assembly Mono.Posix. So I tried installing gtksharp and copied its Mono.Posix.dll to the directory with sdb.exe. However this didn't work either and is now screaming at me like this:


Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'Mono.Posix, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=0738eb9f132ed756' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
   at Mono.Debugger.Client.Program.Main(String[] args)

Are you running sdb under Mono or .NET?

Can confirm that this happens when running under .NET. No problems running under mono. mono sdb.exe

I guess the runtime is trying to load Mono.Posix.dll because of the call to Stdlib.SetSignalAction() in Program.Main() even though it's only a reference to an external method that doesn't necessarily have to be resolved upfront (since we only do the call conditionally). Some indirection might do the trick.

Should be fixed now. Feel free to reopen or file other issues if you still have problems running SDB under .NET.

@alexrp Wow, thanks so much! I had almost given up hope.
