How to compile for linux

[deepgandhi]

I would like to compile for aarch64 architecture so that it can be run on android with use of termux. How to compile in Linux @SRvSaha ?

@deepgandhi I doubt that Termux has support for .NET Core Runtime. I wanted to do that but found it's not officially supported yet.

• Package Request: .NET Core termux/termux-packages#516
• https://www.reddit.com/r/dotnet/comments/8f7igw/net_core_on_android/

If you want to build the project, you can use dotnet build command in the project where .csproj file is there for Core Project.
.NET Core 3.1 SDK must be present in your system where you are building.
To run, you can use dotnet run command. To package it, you can use follow these steps: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/deploying/

Try to run the current linux 64 bit version in android and see if it works. There is another option of linux-arm. But I am not sure it it will work.

It's more of an experimental thing.

Actually, in my linux mint dotnet is not installed, still I was able to run it yesterday @SRvSaha. I think if it is compiled, there is no runtime requirements.

I have bundled the runtime requirements so that user doesn't fall in the dependency hell. I have made sure than Windows, Linux or MacOS Version works seamlessly either by one command running or by double clicking just. There reason I was telling you the details of all the compilation as I don't know if the current linux version would work with Android OS or not.

@deepgandhi Try running the current linux build in Android using Termux. Mostly probably it won't work, but let's see. Else I can provide you will a standalone linux-arm package to test using Termux.

@SRvSaha yes, current version is not running. Actually I tied that first, but it didn't work so I asked you afterwards.

@deepgandhi Since Termux doesn’t have native support for dotnet, it won’t work! So, closing thw issue
