[GSOC 2023] .NET Port

Great news that the builders are up and running again, but also that .NET is actively looking into the PR’s, thanks for your work here! :ok_hand:

After more than 5 months, the previous pull request to dotnet/runtime has just been merged!

I’ve also opened a new PR, this one concerning native C/C++ code changes to the repo:

Haiku: Initial CoreCLR support by trungnt2910 · Pull Request #93907 · dotnet/runtime (github.com)

Weekly builds are still rolling, at least for one more month.

.NET 8 has just been released a few days ago.

Earlier today I have provided the latest weekly build for .NET 8 and .NET 9 with newly rebased code.
Release .NET 8 for Haiku x64 build 20231119.1 Release · trungnt2910/dotnet-builds (github.com)

Since I’m getting busier with other things, as planned, I will stop the weekly rebases. I will still keep the weekly builds running in case there are some breaking changes in the Haiku toolchain. However, the port will not be continuously rebased like in the past few months.

This is also a good time for anyone interested to create a recipe and package .NET 8 on HaikuPorts.

Hi @trungnt2910,
I’ve finally found some time to try dotnet on Haiku but I think the provided packages are broken or not aligned.
Specifically, I get an error installing the Haiku workload because

https://github.com/trungnt2910/dotnet-haiku/releases/download/0.1.0-dev.149/trungnt2910.net.sdk.haiku.manifest-9.0.100-alpha.1.0.1.0-dev.149.nupkg

can’t be found. It seems the workload is not up to date with the latest sdk?

Yeah, the workload hasn’t been updated to be built with .NET 9.

Can you try it with .NET 8 packages instead?
Like the official dotnet-install.sh, my version at dotnet-builds supports a --channel argument.
So, to install .NET 8, you can run:

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/trungnt2910/dotnet-builds/HEAD/dotnet-install.sh)" -- --install-dir /path/to/where/you/want/to/install/dotnet --channel 8.0

If you really need .NET 9 support, you will need to add the corresponding version band here:

and enable a .NET 9 build by running another command here, passing an additional argument: --runtime-version=9.0:

Thanks!
I’m ok with version 8, I’ll try that route and let you know.

My understanding is that the workload cannot be built on Haiku, is that correct?

Unfortunately, the workload does not exist for the corresponding latest SDk. The script looks for https://github.com/trungnt2910/dotnet-haiku/releases/download/0.1.0-dev.149/trungnt2910.net.sdk.haiku.manifest-8.0.101-servicing.23631.0.1.0-dev.149.nupkg.
Any thoughts?

There’s something wrong with the build number detection logic in the install-manifest.sh file in the dotnet-haiku repo.

8.0.101-whatever should have been compatible with 8.0.100.

It should be a quick fix, I’ll try to do it when I have time…

It’s not entirely impossible to build this on Haiku. What you need to do is to port the native components of CppSharp to Haiku. The changes should mostly be build-system related, as most of the code is just invoking LLVM libraries, and we already have a LLVM port on Haiku.

I’ve pushed some fixes to this issue. A few minutes after the time of writing, new packages should have been built, along with a new install-manifest.sh script.

I’ve attempted at adding net9 support, but currently this is impossible, as workload packages are currently not versioned based on runtime numbers. Therefore, trying to build net9 alongside net8 would overwrite existing packages with net9 libraries, unless further changes are made to the build system.

the workload has been installed correctly but I now have an issue with creating a new application of type Haiku Application (dotnet new haiku).

dotnet run
/boot/home/workspace/dotnet/haiku/haiku.csproj : error NU1102: Unable to find package Microsoft.AspNetCore.App.Ref with version (= 8.0.0-rtm.23502.22)
/boot/home/workspace/dotnet/haiku/haiku.csproj : error NU1102:   - Found 95 version(s) in nuget.org [ Nearest version: 8.0.0 ]
/boot/home/workspace/dotnet/haiku/haiku.csproj : error NU1102:   - Found 0 version(s) in dotnet_haiku_nuget

The build failed. Fix the build errors and run again.

Apparently AspNetCore is a hard coded dependency. This also happens with other templates like “console”.
Am I missing something?

The way .NET SDK builds work is that it copies the existing SDK and updates a few files.
The existing SDK fetched by the CI script is some beta one used by the .NET team, and therefore is bundled with beta packages.

A proper, complete build script should replace these versions with the ones that are actually shipped:

My dotnet-builds repo also simulates this:

However, since we do not ship ASP.NET Core, the beta version in the development SDK is left unchanged. This causes problems when the SDK on Haiku tries to load framework packages during the first build.

Adding Microsoft’s beta feeds for .NET 8 might resolve this issue:

dotnet nuget add source --name dotnet8 "https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/dnceng/public/_packaging/dotnet8/nuget/v3/index.json"

If this does fix the problem, let me know so that I could update the corresponding instructions.

Hi @trungnt2910,
that seemed to solve the dependency issue and the application can be built correctly but an error occurs at runtime:

Unhandled exception. System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type 'Haiku.App.BApplication' from assembly 'haiku, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.

I think it would be better to open an issue on GitHub, in which repo do you want me to open it?

dotnet-haiku, since it is specifically related to the workload.

If this issue is also present in pure old .NET console apps, then trungnt2910/dotnet-builds or trungnt2910/dotnet-runtime might be better places.

Sadly, a crash report like that would not help much with a managed .NET exception.

After continuing on GitHub, can you please attach a .zip file containing your application project, including the generated bin and obj folder?

My two theories are:

  • The workload correctly included reference libraries, but somehow messed up the runtime parts, making them not present when the application is run, or
  • The binding generators somehow failed to detect BApplication due to recent changes in Haiku headers.

I have reinstalled the latest build and the workload. Now a template console app runs but the haiku app fails with the very same error as before.
Installing 8.0 on top of a broken 9.0 was not a good idea, after all. It’s now the turn of your second theory, then.
As per your request, I’ve opened an issue here.

Actually, after installing the haiku workload the console application executable helloworld does not run anymore. It fails with the error:

You must install .NET to run this application.

App: /boot/home/workspace/dotnet/helloworld/bin/Debug/net8.0/helloworld
Architecture: x64
App host version: 8.0.1
.NET location: Not found

Download the .NET runtime:
https://aka.ms/dotnet-core-applaunch?missing_runtime=true&arch=x64&rid=haiku-x64&os=haiku.1&apphost_version=8.0.1

Via dotnet run it works as already stated.

I’ve never tested with running the executable before. It probably has some issues with finding the system .NET installation, since 1. You are installing it to a non-standard directory and 2. Haiku does not follow UNIX directory conventions anyway.

If you really need to run something using the executable, a self-contained deployment might work, but it would take hundreds of megabytes for a single application.

A dotnet executable relies on the env variable DOTNET_ROOT to locate the runtime.

export DOTNET_ROOT=/boot/system/non-packaged/bin/dotnet

or whatever the path is, worked for me.
I was under the impression that it worked before installing the Haiku workload but I need to reinstall everything from scratch to check.

If it’s not exported by default, I’d suggest to add this to the installation script.
