Deploying to Windows Mobile 5.0

[Rick]

This seems to take a really long time. Looking at what is being
deployed, some of it doesn't make sense to me:

What is wrong with this picture? Like, where is
System.DirectoryServices.dll coming from? or System.Data.OracleClient?
(The ApplicationBlocks.Data piece is a compact framework version I've
adapted to 2.0)

I'm then getting an out of memory error on loading a 32 x 32 icon from
an assembly resource. But there seems to be plenty of memory looking at
the device itself! Anyone?

You are using desktop assemblies (either your own or directly the full
framework's) which results in bringing in all the rest... Also see this

[Rick Spiewak]

Thanks! Good call. One the one hand, it's good to be able to build a full
framework based test project in the same solution as a CF project, and run
NUnit tests against some of the classes. On the other hand, the environment
can be just a hair too permissive at times...

 

[Daniel Moth]

If it's not too permissive we blame the team for closing doors and if they
aren't we blame them for letting us shoot ourselves in the foot. However, in
this case I agree that there should be at least a more visible warning.

Cheers
