Hi,
first I would like to thank you for MVC#.
My question is if this framework ever been tested on CF 3.5 or later? As the Resources on Mobile devices are limited we're wondering if it's a good idea to use this framework and if the resource management has been considered.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Robert Wallström here, I am resposible for the CF port of this framework.
And I have not had any problems this frameworrk on my HTC TYTN-II (runing windows mobile 6.1).
Allthough as you mentioned resources in a mobile device are scarce so the answer to your question would be "it depends" an mostly on what your application are intended to do?
You also mentioned "..if the resource management has been considered", please elaborate what you mean by that?
(and I guess the answer to that is no ;) )
In my opinion the largets benefits for using this framework is that it enables a higher testability and secondly that with a careful system design you might very easily be able to port the application to / from Win / Web / CF & Silverlight.
Best Regards!

Sean and SmithImage, I'm new to MVC#. I dev with MS VS2008 (with all svc pks), using mostly C#. I've played with MS MVC...and...well...it seems a bit bureaucratic, wasting energy to maintain strict MVC patterning, when common sense suggests otherwise. So, I'm looking at MVC#.
My immediate problems, after having read all the doc (except the Reference part) and installing the package are:
1.) When I attempt to Build the MVCSharp.sln project, I get errors for the NUnit Namespace not being found. Huh? Surely there is an out-of-the-box project that will let me build the .dll files without NUnit.
2.) My real end goal is to be able to develop Silverlight apps within the MVC pattern. (I was unable to figure out how to get that done using the Silverlight project template, and the MVC option under it. I saw the two separate things...the Silverlight Project and the MVC Project, within the same solution and not a hint on getting the MVC project to operate with the Silverlight pages for its "View" aspects. So, I'm angling towards using MVC# to get the job done.
I could use some assistance getting the dlls built (for Silverlight...or anything, for that matter), at the very least.
And, I have a T-Mobile MDA (HTC 8125 Wizard) and I have done some playing with developing Win Mobile apps for it. Just this week, I decided to play with loading all new ROMS in it, to include WM6.1, etc. I have been hanging around http://www.xda-developers.com/ for the ROMS and tools. A great learning experience, and so far, I haven't "bricked" my MDA. So, I'm interested in angling apps toward use on the PPC world, specifically Windows Mobile. And, it sounds like you folks are resonating in that same direction.
Thanks for your time and consideration...

First of all, thanks for considering using the MVC# framework. I swear it'll show its strength and agility (as opposed to "bureaucratic" frameworks) if you give it a try :)
Now I'll try to answer your questions:
1) Actually you only need to build the MVC# projects itself, not the whole solution. Nevertheless, I'll consider extracting the NUnit tests project into a separate solution to avoid any confusion like this.
2) The Silverlight version of the MVC# fx is located under the MVCSharp\Silverlight\ folder. Open the MVCSharpSL.sln and build it to produce the DLL.
For the examples of how the Silverlight applications using MVC# are structured see the Examples folder. Some of the examples include their Silverlight implementation. For instance, see Examples\Basics\Presentation\Silverlight\Basics.sln .
Similarly feel free to examine how Mobile versions of the examples work. For example, look at Examples\Basics\Presentation\Mobile\Basics.sln
If any questions arise please post them here or ask them via e-mail. We'll be glad to answer them :)
Best regards,
