NAME

       Mono CIL strip

SYNOPSIS

       mono-cil-strip assembly [output-assembly]

DESCRIPTION

       mono-cil-strip  is a tool which takes an assembly, and empty its method bodies.	This is useful to reduce an assembly size when an assembly
       has already been compiled using Mono's Ahead Of Time compiler (AOT), where the CIL code is no longer necessary, but the metadata still is.

NAME

       lc - Mono License Compiler

SYNOPSIS

       lc -c filename -t targetassembly [-i reference...] [-v] [-o outputpath] [-nologo]

DESCRIPTION

       lc tool is a license compiler for Mono. It's used to convert a licenses.licx file to a resource that can be embedded into an executable.

       When  using  commercial components for .NET they often require a license resource at runtime to make sure the developer was licensed to use
       this control. The most common way of making sure the component was properly licensed is by using license resources.  At	compile  time  the
       developer  uses the lc tool to convert a licenses.licx file to a programname.exe.resources file and embed that as a managed resource during
       compilation.

RUNTIME OPTIONS

       The following options are available:

       --complist=filename, -c filename
	      This option is used to specify the input file, the licenses.licx file to create a license reesource for. This  option  is  required.
	      The license compiler will read each line in this file and try to load the types specified on that line.

       --target=assemblyname, -t targetassembly
	      full assembly name with file extension for the target assembly. The license compiler uses this as a key when compiling the licenses.
	      It has to match the assembly the resource will be embedded in. This option is required.

       --load=reference, -i reference
	      Assembly reference to load before trying to compile a license. This option is needed for assemblies where the references are not	in
	      the gac. Compilers should pass all references to the license compiler.

       --verbose,, -v
	      Gives more verbose output about the license compiling process.

       --help, -h
	      Displays usage instructions.

       --output=path, -o path
	      Target  path  file  the licenses resource. By default the license compiler emits the resource in the current directory. The filename
	      will always match the target assembly passed to --target with .licenses added.

       --nologo
	      Do not emit the "Mono License Compiler" logo  on stdout while compilng.

LICENSE FILES

       The format for the license files (licenses.licx) is the following:
	    # comment
	    namespace.type, assemblyname
	    namespace.type, full-assemblyname

       All lines starting with a # are ignored. the first form requires that the assembly was loaded through the --load,-i  option  but  does  not
       require the full assembly name, only the first part.

       The second form requires the full assembly name including locale, version and publickeytoken.
