[Xfc-dev] Fw: [Mono-list] is it possible to make C# wrapper for Xfce libraries ?

Forget XFC. It's a C++ binding for the Xfce, GTK+ and Glade C libraries. 
You should NOT write C# bindings for XFC. I think you must mean the Xfce 
core libraries which are written in C: libxfcegui4, libxfce4util and 
libxfce4mcs. These are the libraries one would write a C# binding for, 
if one had reason to.

You don't need to C# wrappers for the Xfce libraries to write a Xfce 
application in C#. Xfce is written in C using the GTK+ libraries so any 
GTK+ application (not GNOME) is also a Xfce application. You can just 
use GTK# that already comes with mono.
