I have read documentation once more in deep and tried again with fresh sources from svn. I have created new CF2.0 project (target device WindowsCE, CF 2.0, project type: class library) and added all source codes as mentioned in documentation. Still no succes, StackFrame class used in LocationInfo.cs is not a part of CF. So I added some #if !NETCF to not use this class in CF build. But some other classes are using StackFrame defined in LocationInfo (StackTraceDetailPatternConverter and StackTracePatternConverter). Because of this, I have detached there classes from CF project and skipped them in PatternLayout static constructor by #if !NETCF. Compilation error count decreased significantly, so I did last reparations in FileAppender (CF doesn't support friendlyname for mutex) and RollingFileAppender (GetLastWriteTimeUtc not supported in CF) and it compiles without problems !!! According to source code I guess that CF version is not built during development and changes in code even aren't checked against compact framework (!), what is surprising - nobody need to use log4net on WinCE or similar embedded/mobile platform? If someone from development team is interested, I can provided CF project file with all my modifications in existing code. Radovan Raszka

It compiles using .NET 2.0, not using CF 2.0 what leads that some .NET 2.0 libraries are deployed to my Win CE device. It is not possible as disk space is insufficient. So I finally compiled it from cmd line using CF 2.0, but resulting DLL doesn't work - see my code: log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender fa = new log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender(); fa.AppendToFile = true; fa.File = "hh.log"; fa.Layout = new log4net.Layout.PatternLayout("%date{dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss} [%5level] %message%n"); <-- here is Exception thrown saying: Could not load type 'System.Diagnostics.StackFrame' from assembly 'mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=969DB8053D3322AC'. fa.RollingStyle = log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender.RollingMode.Date; fa.Threshold = log4net.Core.Level.Debug; fa.ActivateOptions(); log4net.Config.BasicConfigurator.Configure(fa); log4net.ILog log = log4net.LogManager.GetLogger(this.GetType()); It seems that there is still dependency on StackFrame class which is not a part of CF 2.0. Was anybody able to compile working log4net for CF 2.0 ? I looks like vey tricky task... RR
