Hey all-

If someone could answer this basic question I'd appreciate it.

How portable are .NET 2003 applications to other platforms, ie linux or etc.

That would depend on how compliant you were with ANSI would it not?

My particular question refers to system calls, ie system("PAUSE") and I thought it was part of stdlib.h and that is platform independant but I am not sure.


THANKS!

As of now...still limited...take a look at Mono (http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page)...

Well...there are only some parts of the whole thing which has been standardized as of now such as the C# language and the common language.

Well...I don't see the connection to the .NET framework, however, 'system' is an ANSI C function....
