NUnit/Mono not printing stack trace line number even with --debug
c#, mono, nunit, nunit-console
Solution
What solved the issue for me was the option
-runtime=v4.0
(or the corresponding one to your case)
Problem
Ok, here's the thing, using Xamarin on OS X (the .cs file is a very simple test case that causes a backtrace) Compiling ``` mcs /debug /lib:~(...)NUnit-2.6.3/bin/framework/:~(...)NUnit-2.6.3/bin/lib/ -r:nunit.framework.dll test.cs ``` Running ``` mono --debug /Users/thiago/qm/nunit/NUnit-2.6.3/bin/nunit-console.exe test.exe ``` The result ``` 1) Test Error : TestOne.testFirst System.NullReferenceException : Object reference not set to an instance of an object at TestOne.testFirst () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at (wrapper managed-to-native) System.Reflection.MonoMethod:InternalInvoke (System.Reflection.MonoMethod,object,object[],System.Exception&) at System.Reflection.MonoMethod.Invoke (System.Object obj, BindingFlags invokeAttr, System.Reflection.Binder binder, System.Object[] parameters, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 ``` If I use the provided nunit-console from Xamarin it works however, it does not work with several libs, etc, (for example: Monitor and some other ones) Running only `mono test.cs` (causing a stacktrace) shows the corresponding line numbers.
