Haxe Forum > Installing C# target?

• Martin K Jun 02 at 16:39

  Hi I have installed the latest Nightly build from here:
  http://haxe.cmt.tc/windows/
  (haxe_r4735.zip 02-Jun-2012 11:44 1.9M)
  - I have followed the instructions( copied over the std dir and the haxe.exe).
  - the std directory does have a 'cs' directory, which I suppose refers to C#.

  - however I am not sure what to do next? If i start FlashDevelop, C# is NOT listed as a Target.

  Any ideas?

  If you have questions about FlashDevelop it might be best to ask them on their forum:

  Hi Jan

  Thanks for the quick reply.

  So lets just confirm, the latest nightly build DOES have the C# target, and it SHOULD work, so this error is simply a Flashdevelop error right?

  Haxe does have a C# target. but I am unsure how usable it currently is. so unless your really able, and willing to get your hands dirty I would suggest waiting a bit longer. FlashDevelop will not be setup for c# target compile, I would suggest trying something simpler like http://www.sublimetext.com/2, where you can construct your own hxml, ( you can do this with FlashDevelop but simpler to try with a simple text editor ).

  Thanks for the response Justin!
  I am only looking to export some mostly abstract/math based classes nothing fancy(these arent complete projects), so if the basics work that should be fine.

  However I would appreciate if you could provide a bit more detailed help about how to set up the compiler/project so that I can compile into a C# .dll.

  Hi!

  I don't use Flashdevelop (I'm a GNU/Linux user), but this is the setup for compile C# source code:

  # From command line
  haxe -cs <target directory> -main <main class>
  # Or in a hxml, putting the -cs flag

  If you want to compile the C# source code, using Mono Compiler:

  cd <target directory>/src
  gmcs -recurse:*.cs -main:<main class> -out:<desired exec name>

  Hope this help you.

  I have added a tutorial page to the wiki. Max I hope you don't mind, basically I used the information you provided, after testing with textmate on my mac after creating a lion nightly (rev 4747).

  docs c#

  Max it would be useful if you can explain the compile line a bit more, I was not fully clear on it. I seem to be getting some runtime warnings after hello traces, I will post them here for reference.

  Jan or Max feel free to improve the page, I basically went with the code I was using so it differs very slightly to the Java one but is based on the same structure, but not bothered with a bin folder maybe I should have.
