Hi, I want to use c# to build robot interface. I found c# is very convenient,because both windows and linux can run the same c# program. c# can use mono to run. So if c# can also be included in ROS, it will be very great~
C# is not supported yet; if you must use C#, your only option would be to re-implement the basic network protocols in C#, but that will be a lot of work.
If you are just looking for a way to build a platform-independent robot interface, you could have a look at rosjava.
There is now a C# api, available see: http://www.ros.org/wiki/roscs
You can basically run ROS with any language supporting networking. So, yes, ROS is able to support C#. BUT there needs to be an implementation and as far as I know there is no C# one.
If you are only looking for platform independence python is supported very well in ROS. Full ROS usability in Windows is somewhat limited, though, as you will want all ROS features.

ROS.NET is another project which appears to aim at this goal.
