Install Wine

All but one of the .NET Micro Framework tools you need to build apps are .NET apps, and run just fine under Mono. MetaDataProcessor.exe is a native Windows app, but you can run it under Wine, an implementation of Windows APIs that runs on Mac OS X or Linux. You’ll first need to install Wine (see http://www.winehq.org/ for details). On Linux, you should be able to install it using your package manager. For example, on Ubuntu, you can use this command at the terminal:

sudo apt-get install wine

After you’ve installed Wine, run winecfg from the terminal window to get Wine set up for the first time. As soon as the Wine Configuration window appears, you can close it.

Next, you need to add some libraries. The fastest way to do this is by installing the winetricks utility. See http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks for information on installing and using it (if you installed Wine with a package manager on Linux, it may have installed winetricks along with Wine). After you install it, use it to install these libraries and packages (each one may cause one or more installation dialogs to appear):

  • vcrun2010

  • vcrun2008

  • dotnet30
