Run Tomboy with Mono 3.2 on Mac

Compiling it from scratch based on http://xmemory.tompium.com/2012/06/running-tomboy-note-taking-app-on-mac.html doesn't work anymore. Here are the additional instructions:-

• After getting the latest version of Tomboy (1.15.3),  replace "flush(true)" with "flush()" in Note.cs to fix a compile error. Not sure why the compiler complained about this line. Anyway, using just "flush()" fixes the problem but it may not write everything to disk straight away.
• After building Tomboy, running it caused an exception:- 

Missing method System.Reflection.Assembly::op_Equality(Assembly,Assembly)

To fix it, modify a script file called Tomboy in Tomboy.app -> Contents/MacOS/Tomboy by changing the last line to

exec -a "Tomboy" "$MONO" --runtime=v4.0 --debug $ASSEMBLY $@

System.Object is not defined or imported when building PCL project in Xamarin Studio 4.0.12

There're also a bunch of similar errors:-

: error CS0518: The predefined type `System.Object' is not defined or imported
: error CS0518: The predefined type `System.ValueType' is not defined or imported
: error CS0518: The predefined type `System.Attribute' is not defined or imported
: error CS0518: The predefined type `System.Int32' is not defined or imported
: error CS0518: The predefined type `System.UInt32' is not defined or imported
. . .

To fix this, go to References -> Edit References -> .Net Assembly then add mscorlib.dll from /Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Libraries/mono/4.5

Running Tomboy Note-Taking App on Mac

When running Tomboy 1.10.2 on Mac OS X Lion with Mono 2.10.9 installed, I got this error:-

Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown by the type initializer for IgeMacIntegration.IgeMacDock ---> System.EntryPointNotFoundException: ige_mac_dock_get_type

I found that the ige-mac-integration-sharp.dll library used by Tomboy is not compatible with libigemacintegration.dylib in Mono 2.10.9 (some external functions don't exist any more). I'm new to Mono and this library and I just wanted to get Tomboy to run on Mac and also wanted to keep the latest version of Mono so I did a dirty fix by doing the following:-

• Build Tomboy.

git clone git://git.gnome.org/tomboy
xbuild Tomboy-mac.sln
./bundle-mac-app.sh

• Copy libigemacintegration.0.0.0.dylib from Mono 2.6.x to Tomboy.app/Contents/MacOS and rename it to libigemacintegration.dylib
  
  
• Transfer all notes from my Ubuntu machine to Mac.

cp /Volumes/tom-ubuntu/.local/share/tomboy/*.note /Users/tomtanti/Library/Application Support/Tomboy/

• Run Tomboy for testing.

open Tomboy.app

• Move Tomboy.app to Applications so that I can simply run it from there in the future.

Update (2013-08-17):
New instructions for running Tomboy with Mono 3.2
