access registry without .Net CF 2

[cyberco]

WM5-SE, .Net CF1, VS2005

I want to access the registry on my WM5, .Net CF1 device. I know how
to access the registry using the Microsoft.Win32 namespace that comes
with .Net CF2 (or the OpenNetCF), but how about .NetCF1 devices?

If you don't want to include the entire SDF v1.x in your project you can
look at the source and just take out the relevant Registry bits.

Have a look at this Microsoft article:

Download the sample code and take a look at the Registry.cs class --
it's where I cribbed my registry functionality from. And since the
main article is a discussion about creating a P/Invoke library,
there's no dependency on the Microsoft.Win32 namespace.

I've been using it successfully on a WM5 device, using the CF2 SP2
framework. But like I said, it should work under CF1.


Good luck,
Chris
