?Hi,
so, in fact, strings in Properties/AssemblyInfo.cs are auto generated by
Visual Studio. I can change strings values, but I have to know What to put
as society and copyright. For the comments in this file, they are also
generated by visual Studio and as my installation is in french, comments are
in french. I appreciate that you translate them (I'm not fluent in english
as you can read ;) )
About DllImport method attributes, they are interpreted at compile time. And
we can use a variable or a function return to set the library file name
(libvirt-0.dll under windows, and <I don't knowwhat>.so under linux).

Okay, I can't really test this, but I have a few comments:
- Properties/AssemblyInfo.cs has comments in french, I could try to
translate them, probably not urgent, and seems like directive on
how to generate the binary for C#, so not very urgent
- Since the COPYING.LIB in the current git is LGPLv2+ and since
it's referenced, I assume that's the licence intended for this
contribution
- in Properties/AssemblyInfo.cs I see references to Microsoft and
especially "Copyright © Microsoft 2010" do we really want to do
this ?
- for each entry point I see
[DllImport("libvirt-0.dll")]
public static extern ....
I have 2 questions:
- should the DllImport be factored in some ways or is that just
a C# construct interpreted just at compile time
- assuming we want to add Mono compatibility it seems the library
would be named differently on a Linux system, is there a way
to at least factor out the string of the library being imported
(maybe in an initialization routine ?)
Anyway, since the git tree was currently empty (except for Licence
files) I commited and pushed the patch (just cleaned up a few trailing
whitespaces). It's there now
http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt-csharp.git
So the best from now on is to provide patches against git, I suggest to
use this list for further discussions and patches as we do for Java,
thanks a lot !
