Daniel Ellis commented on AMQNET-175:
-------------------------------------

Thanks Jim,

Sorry, I was not aware that the Serializable attribute had sneaked in to the 
compact framework 2.0 with SP1.

I downloaded and installed the ".NET Compact Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2 
Redistributable", and then NMS compiled using Nant without a problem.

Although the serializable attribute has now been included, the attribute still 
has no effect, see the following note taken from 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.serializableattribute.aspx

"Windows Mobile for Pocket PC, Windows Mobile for Smartphone, Windows CE 
Platform Note:

The SerializableAttribute attribute is present in the .NET Compact Framework 
for compatibility only, and will be ignored if used."

> Trunk fails to build for compact-framework, due to [Serializable] attributes

> The trunk fails to build due to the [Serializable] attributes that are on 
> many of the exception classes.  Removing the attributes, which I have done in 
> the attached patch, resolves the issue and compilation then succeeds.
> I am not sure about the consequences of removing the serializable attributes, 
> but did look through the revision history and cannot see any consistency of 
> when certain exceptions have this attribute.
> Another option would be to wrap compile time directives around the attributes 
> so they are not included in the compact framework build.
