I am trying to get the OpenNetCF.Net FTP Components working with my PDA application. I am struggling to get it doing any more than connecting to the server and wondered if anyone knew of any sample code I could use to learn how to use it with? I need to be able to download and upload files, as well as determining the download size of any files that I wish to download. Thanks in advance. I don't like the classes in the OpenNETCF.Net.FTP namespace (the ones in the Smart Device Framework). They're based on streams just like the full framework version (which is why we did them that way) but I find

I'm working on a VS2008 Smart Device app that includes a Smart Device CAB Project for deployment. I was surprised to find out that this installer project doesn't install the .NET Compact Framework if necessary. Can it be made to do so? It can be done with some work. See Automatically Install Multiple CAB Files to a Windows Mobile/Pocket PC Device from codeproject.com There is no way to get a CAB Project to install and run another CAB file - it's a limitation of the CAB installer system (wceload to be exact). One way to achieve it is to include the CF CAB and then create a custom setup DLL that

I'm maintaining a Windows CE app built with the .NET Framework that has about 45 forms. There are 5 'sections' which lead to the function you want. The application is 100% full screen and it is important that it can't be minimized. Since there are so many forms, it's difficult to keep track of which form should be displayed after one is closed. For this, I'm setting the form owner property before showing it, and showing the owner when closing it. I've also been advised that it is best to instantiate all forms when the application loads, and not dispose them to save processing time. I'm not

I'm trying to do an asynchronous HTTP(S) POST on .NET Compact Framework and I can't seem to get it working. Here's what I'm doing: private void sendRequest(string url, string method, string postdata) { WebRequest rqst = HttpWebRequest.Create(url); CredentialCache creds = new CredentialCache(); creds.Add(new Uri(url), "Basic", new NetworkCredential(this.Uname, this.Pwd)); rqst.Credentials = creds; rqst.Method = method; if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(postdata)) { rqst.ContentType = "application/xml"; byte[] byteData = UTF8Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(postdata); rqst.ContentLength = byteData.Length; using

NET Compact Framework with Visual Studio 2010? I have Visual Studio 2003, but i want change to one IDE. rcx Joel Fjordén has a blog post on how to Open and Build .NET Compact Framework Projects in Visual Studio 2010. In short, his approach involves editing the project file and copying the .NET Compact Framework v3.5 targets files to the .NET v4 directory. As alluded to earlier, Microsoft web pages note the following: Because Visual Studio 2010 does not support mobile application development for Windows Phone prior to Windows Phone OS 7.0, you cannot use the following features: .NET Compact

The compiler does a great job of optimising for RELEASE builds, but occasionally it can be useful to ensure that optimisation is turned off for a local function (but not the entire project by unticking Project Options > Optimize code ). In C++ this is achieved using the following (with the #pragma normally commented out): #pragma optimize( "", off ) // Some code such as a function (but not the whole project) #pragma optimize( "", on ) Is there an equivalent in C#? UPDATE Several excellent answers suggest decorating the method with MethodImplOptions.NoOptimization . This was implemented in .NET
