Hi

Having finished my investigation of what's new for Compact Framework
development in the MSDN March download of VS 2005 (Whidbey) I though I'd
post some feedback [because I know MS listens and is always looking for
feedback]

Congrats to the team for continuing to provide us with a truly fantastic
development environment!

Cheers
Daniel

THINGS I LIKE (top 8):
+ New mscoree.stat entries (Monitor.Enter, ThreadPool, Timers, GC etc)
+ Thread.Abort & Thread.IsBackground
+ Control.BeginInvoke on own delegate with arguments
+ Tooltip for ToolBarButton
+ Splitter control
+ Fore-/Back- color for ListViewItem & for TreeNode
+ WebBrowser control (no designer support yet but who cares :-)
+ System.IO.Ports.SerialPort

STILL MISSING (top 3)
- TreeView.NodeMouseClick (the point has been made numerous times by
numerous parties that TreeView.AfterSelect is good but we need to know
*every* time the user taps on a node even if it is already selected)

- ToolBar that can be docked to the bottom (I am working on CE 4.2-based
device, not PPC)

- ListView.TopItem (and someway to detect scrolling)

Have you taken a look at how Whidbey/CF2.0 deals with custom control creation and the support for a design time experience (custom controls showing up on the form designer)?

Hi,

I am very new in this field and i would like to build an application for the compact framework(for a Pocket Pc or a smartphone) that uses the WebBrowser Control

Is this possible..

Could you please give me some basic instructions...

Thanks in advance!
