Develop smart contracts on Linux/macOS about neo HOT 7 CLOSED

@chenzhitong Can you look into it?

from neo.

I actually have this working on macOS, the problem is that the different NEO projects have net461 (besides netstandard1.6 and sometimes netcoreapp1.0) as TargetFramework and this doesn't work on macOS. For building on the command-line, you can specify -t netstandard1.6 and the projects build. For getting it to work in Visual Studio on Mac you need to remove net461 from the project files.

@aljoscha Thanks for the answer, now the problem is I can't convert compiled dll to avm for deployment. On Windows this is handled by the plugin, but I couldn't find it for macOS

I uploaded the changes to make Neo.Sandbox work on macOS on my fork: https://github.com/aljoscha/Neo.Sandbox. You can look at https://github.com/aljoscha/Neo.Sandbox/blob/master/src/Testbox/Test_HelloWorld.cs and https://github.com/aljoscha/Neo.Sandbox/blob/master/src/Testbox/Utilities/ExecutionHelper.cs. There you see how a dll is converted to AVM and also how it's executed for testing.

Is there any guide for developing smart contracts using Kotlin on macOS?

from neo.

@Sajjon I used macOS to develop the contracts for my dApp in Kotlin. You could strip out my code and work from it as a starting point: https://github.com/notatestuser/chainline-contracts-kt

I just went through the city of Zion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EYK1ogr5i4 guide a few times and keep getting this build error,

Bens-MBP:target ben$ dotnet /Users/ben/neo-compiler/neoj/bin/Release/netcoreapp1.1/neoj.dll /Users/ben/Downloads/neoj_osx/HelloWorld.class
Neo.Compiler.JVM console app v2.0.3.0
Convert Error:System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file '/Users/ben/Downloads/neoj_osx/HelloWorld.class'.

I notice that when the video calls the command -
dotnet /Users/ben/neo-compiler/neoj/bin/Release/netcoreapp1.1/neoj.dll /Users/ben/Downloads/neoj_osx/HelloWorld.class

the error message which is inputed later diverges from my message it comes out as /usr/local/share/dotnet/org.neo.smartcontract.framework.jar

Im going round and round with this and can't seem to get it converting, any thoughts appreciated?
