Win32 Fruits

These bananas come to you curtsey of Todd Berman and Charles Iliya Krempeaux. Yes, this is Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) in Win32 with Gtk#. This work using Gtk# 1.0.4 and on 1.9.1.

The source code file to output this image is here. Keep an eye out for the Mono 1.1.3 installer for Win32 where all this goodness will debut for the first time in Windows :)

Update...


The Mono Win32 installers for 1.0.5 and 1.1.3 are now available.

Something that wasn't immediately obvious from the code: how does the Image scale the Pixbuf when the window is resized?

Without that, you might as well just convert the SVG to PNG before shipping the product.

You spelled FRUIT wrong.
Just to let you know I do read your blog!!!!

Hi There,

I have to say thank you for the mono 1.1.3 installer I've been waiting ages for it

Just thought I would bring a problem I had with the installer to your attention.

After installing mono and starting the mono command prompt (which runs setmonopath.bat) I get an error when I try to run mcs.

"cannot open assembly C:\PROGRA~1\MONO-1~1.3\lib\mono\1.0\mono\1.0\mcs.exe"

This can easily be fixed by adjusting the file mcs.bat on line 6 from

"C:\PROGRA~1\MONO-1~1.3\lib\mono.exe" "C:\PROGRA~1\MONO-1~1.3\lib\mono\1.0\mono\1.0\mcs.exe" %*

to

"C:\PROGRA~1\MONO-1~1.3\lib\mono.exe" "C:\PROGRA~1\MONO-1~1.3\lib\mono\1.0\mcs.exe" %*

As you can see it seems to have added \mono\1.0 twice

Hope it helps and keep up the good work ;)
