Mono runtime - SGen (experimental) Mono is a platform for running and developing applications based on the ECMA/ISO Standards. Mono is an open source effort led by Novell. Mono provides a complete CLR (Common Language Runtime) including compiler and runtime, which can produce and execute CIL (Common Intermediate Language) bytecode (aka assemblies), and a class library. This package contains the Virtual Machine, JIT (Just-in-Time) and AOT (Ahead-of-Time) code generator "mono-sgen". mono-sgen executes applications for the CLI (Common Language Infrastructure). Mono currently only supports the X86, PowerPC, ARM, SPARC, S/390, AMD64 and IA64 architectures. This package uses SGen which is Mono's new simple generational garbage collector instead of Boehm's conservative garbage collector. SGen is currently only for testing and thus should not be used in production.
