Using Spring .NET Framework in Developing .NET Compact Framework Applications

[serdem]

Hi

I tried deploying a simple application developed in Spring .NET framework into my pda (Windows Mobile 5.0). However I met with many deployment problems.
Is it possible to develop Compact Framework Applications using Spring .NET framework?

Is Spring.Core.dll (and other libraries) compatible with .net compact framework?

Is there a release for compact framework?

I need help... :( :confused:

Hi,

I'm afraid Compact Framework is not supported atm. As we would like to support it, it would be a great help, if you could investigate the code portions incompatible with CF. We could easily remove these using preprocessor instructions.

cheers,
Erich

Hi

I'm afraid, I have bad news. After having a look at your error-list (tx for it) and CF documentation, I doubt we can support CF by simply removing incompatible portions of the code. Specifically CF lacks support for XML Schema-Validation, object serialization, has different filesystem-handling and some more. I expect this to be quite a lot of work to do.

I have reopened the corresponding JIRA (http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/spring/browse/SPRNET-115) issue. Watch it to get notified of changes regarding CF support.
