I made another step towards getting build working on FreeBSD:
https://github.com/wfurt/blob
+ dotnet new; dotnet restore; dotnet run -> works on FreebSD.
- I still have some issue using that dotnet cli for a full build.
Running unit tests on FreeBSD still needs some work.
Hopefully that should be resolved shortly and outcome from unit test can paint clearer map of the gap.
I have few PRs to push my private changes to master.
At this point, I’m looking for help with specific issues.
For example:
GetExePath in corefx/System.Diagnostics.Process
I have simple hack using readlink(“/proc/curproc/file”)
I think better implantation should not depend on mounted /proc
Also, I only fix only one function msbuild was failing on.
This may not be interesting for normal apps, but I think it is important for various tools to work properly.
I’m also looking for takers for file watchers. There has been some chatter in the past.
We may always throw – not-supported-by-platform but somebody may have insight if the landscape improved since last year.
Whoever is working on whatever: please tag everything with os-freebsd.
That will make it easier for everybody to track what is going on.
