It translates dynamically a CIL stream into native code. +.I program.exe +and optionally passes +the +.I arguments +to it. +.SH OPTIONS +The following options are supported: +.TP +.I "--help", "-h" +Displays usage instructions. +.TP +.I "--share-code" +This mode makes the LoaderOptimization for Application Domains default +to sharing code. This results in slower code, but enables code +sharing across application domains. The default is to maximize for +speed, but disallow JITed code sharing across domains. See +System.LoaderOptimization for more information +.TP +.I "--config filename" +Load the specified configuration file instead of the default one(s). +The default files are /etc/mono/config and ~/.mono/config or the file +specified in the MONO_CONFIG environment variable, if set. +.TP +.I "--noinline" +Disables the code inliner. +.TP +.SH DEBUGGING OPTIONS +The following options are used to debug, or perfomance test the JIT +compiler: +.TP +.I "--trace-calls" +Shows method names as they are invoked. +.TP +.I "--dump-asm" +Displays the generated code as methods are invoked. +.TP +.I "--dump-forest" +Displays the basic blocks and the forest of trees that is +created from a stream of CIL opcodes. +.TP +.I "--compile name" +Compiles the method on the given class (namespace.name:methodname) or +all classes in the given image (@imagename). +.TP +.I "--ncompile" +Compiles the method a number of times. If no argument is specified, +the method will be compiled a thousand times. +.SH DEVELOPMENT OPTIONS +The following options are used to debug a JITed application. They're +only useful when running the JIT in a debugger: +.TP +.I "--debug" +Writes out debug information in the given format or in the default format. +See DEBUGGING FORMATS for details. +.TP +.I "--debug-args args" +Comma-separated list of additional arguments for the symbol writer. +See DEBUGGING FORMATS for details. +.TP +.I "--break method" +Inserts a breakpoint before the method whose name is `method' +(namespace.class:methodname). Use `Main' as method name to insert a breakpoint on the +application's main method. +.TP +.I "--precompile name" +Compiles the given class (namespace.name), method (namespace.name:methodname) +or all classes in the given image (@imagename) before executing the main +application. +.TP +.I "--profile" +Collect profiling information and dump it at the end of the process. +.SH DEBUGGING FORMATS +The following debugging formats are currently supported: +.TP +.I "stabs" +Writes out stabs debug information. +.TP +.I "dwarf" +Writes out dwarf debug information. +.TP +.I "mono" +Use a symbol file which has been created by MCS. It can be used to get +source lines in stack traces. +.PP +The "stabs" and "dwarf" formats support the following options: +.TP +.I "filename=FILENAME" +Write debugging information into FILENAME. This file must be run through +the assembler to create an object file. +.TP +.I "objfile=FILENAME" +When automatically assembling the symbol file, write the resulting object +file into FILENAME. +.TP +.I "dont_assemble" +Normally, the symbol file is automatically assembled to an object file +when you call "mono_debug_make_symbols". Use this option to disable this +behaviour. +.TP +.I "install_il_files" +Put the generated *.il files in the same directory than the assembly they +came from. The default is to put them into the current working directory. +.TP +.I "dont_update_il_files" +Normally, the *.il files are recreated if their assemblies have changed +when you call "mono_debug_make_symbols". Use this option to disable this +behaviour. +.TP +.I "dont_create_il_files" +Update the *.il files if their assemblies have changed, but only if the +file already exists. +.PP +.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES +.TP +.I "MONO_PATH" +Provides a search path to mono and mint where to look for library files. +Directories are separated by the platform path separator (colons on unix). Example: +.B /home/username/lib:/usr/local/mono/lib +.PP +.TP +.I "MONO_DISABLE_SHM" +If this variable is set, it disables the Windows I/O Emulation layer, +and handles (files, events, mutexes, pipes) will not be shared across +processes. This option is only available on Unix. +.TP +.I "MONO_CFG_DIR" +If set, this variable overrides the default system configuration directory +($PREFIX/etc). It's used to locate machine.config file. +.TP +.I "GC_DONT_GC" +Turns off the garbage collection in Mono. This should be only used +for debugging purposes +.TP +.I "MONO_CONFIG" +If set, this variable overrides the default runtime configuration file +($PREFIX/etc/mono/config). The --config command line options overrides the +environment variable. +.SH FILES +On Unix assemblies are loaded from the installation lib directory. If you set +`prefix' to /usr, the assemblies will be located in /usr/lib. On +Windows, the assemblies are loaded from the directory where mono and +mint live. +.PP +/etc/mono/config, ~/.mono/config +.IP +Mono runtime configuration file. See the mono-config(5) manual page +for more information. +.SH MAILING LISTS +Visit http://mail.ximian.com/mailman/mono-list for details. +.SH WEB SITE +Visit: http://www.go-mono.com for details +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR mcs(1), mint(1), monodis(1), mono-config(5) + + |
