Mono is an open-source implementation of the infrastructure upon which Microsoft¿s
.NET Framework is built. Providing a compatible option with all of the technical
features of .NET without the restrictive licensing and prohibitive costs that
Microsoft imposes, the Mono project was initiated and co-financed by Ximian
Corporation for the development of an open source version of .NET Framework
for Linux/Unix and Windows platforms (Mac OS X support will be added)..
Mono will allow cross-platform programming and operating of .NET compatible
applications. Experts see the presence of a Unix-compatible version as decisive
for the success of .NET.
Mono Kick Start is a practical introduction to Mono and .NET compatible
application programming with Mono. After a classically structured crash-course
on the C# language and Mono¿s own compiler, the authors reach down deeper to
subjects like threads, network programming, security, database interaction,
XML, and more.
A comprehensive practical section shows you how to set up Web applications
with Mono, how GUIs can be programmed using GTK, and how applications written
with .NET can be operated in the Mono framework.
