Package: libmono-corlib4.5-dll (6.8.0.105+dfsg-3.2)

Mono core library (for CLI 4.5)

Mono is a platform for running and developing applications based on the ECMA/ISO Standards. Mono is an open source effort led by Xamarin. 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 Core Library (mscorlib.dll) of Mono for CLI 4.5, which is the glue between the BCL (Base Class Libraries) and the JIT.

This package contains only mscorlib.dll without a mono-runtime dependency to avoid a dependency cycle between the mono core components. For all other uses you should install libmono-corlib4.5-cil instead.
