Windows Mobile WinInet library working with http compresion

Question

On Windows Mobile metod InternetSetOption http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms918381.aspx does not support option INTERNET_OPTION_HTTP_DECODING is there some simple method to turn on compresion under WM 6.0 or any external library that will decompress content received by WinInet

Answer 1

There is no mechanism to just "turn decompression on" - it's simply not supported by wininet under CE. Since the server is very likely going to use the deflate algorithm you can manually decomress the data with something like zlib (which OpenNETCF provides a CE port of for free).
