System.Windows.Forms in Mono

By admin | January 17, 2009

Mono (http://www.mono-project.com/) is a open source implementation of the .NET Framework. Even though it includes System.Windows.Forms support, it is not installed by default. To install it on Ubuntu/Debian, install the packages libmono-winforms1.0-cil and libmono-winforms2.0-cil. The implementation of System.Windows.Forms in Mono is licensed under the LGPL and this means that it can be used with proprietary (non-free) applications.

Below is a screenshot of Windows Forms on Ubuntu:
