OpenNetCF.Net.NetworkInformation.Adapter class is missing

Question

I have donwloaded OpenNETCF's Smart Device Framework but both

OpenNETCF.Net.NetworkInformation.Adapter

AND

OpenNETCF.Net.NetworkInformation.AdapterCollection

yield a

"namespace is missing or not available" error from the compiler.

I am using OpenNetCF.Net Version 2.3.1.12004.0

Answer 1

Those are from the old 1.4 version, before I cleaned out a load of redundancy. What you want is this:

var adapters = OpenNETCF.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces()

Answer 2

Adaptor and AdaptorCollection class are the older version of Opennetcf.net.

The newer version contains AccessPoint and AccessPointCollection.

However, you can get the addaptor by using like this,

INetworkInterface[] nics = NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces();

from using OpenNETCF.Net.NetworkInformation; Then, you can typecase nics depending on the type of network interfaces, like wirelessNetworkInterface, wirelessZeroConfiguredNetworkInterface etc.
