.net-micro-framework

is there a pure C# ZeroConf , bonjour, or dns-sd available?

I'm building a .net-microframework app that uses Zeroconf. The existing zeroconf solutions all seem to either rely on dns-sd.dll or some other interop function of .net which is not supported in .netmf. Is there a pure C# version of zeroconf (or dns-sd) out there that you know of? ...

Parsing an RFC822-Datetime in .NETMF 4.0

I have an application written in .NETMF that requires that I be able to parse an RFC822-Datetime.

.NET Micro framework and unsupported features. What is the impact?

Hi, I found this table listing the limitations of the .NET Micro framework in embedded development, it states that generics are not available due to the size of the image this would create.

Customized UI - Windows or Linux?

I'm not sure if this is possible, but I'll give it a go. I'm creating a device where I have to add a customized user-interface instead of the normal operating system UI. I'm thinking of installing Windows CE (or .NET MICRO) or Linux, but I'm not sure which OS would let me do this. Also, the software (UI) would load instantly and doesn't...
