Unlike Google Android or Java phones, that both can run only "managed code", Windows Mobile smartphones can run both native code (written mostly in C/C++) and managed code (.NET). Here comes a tool that can be useful for .NET developers of Windows Mobile software. More information follows. * * * * * In summary, the tracer will show how your .NET code is executed live. It's great for debugging and no source code changes are needed: just point the tracer to your app, run the modified code, and start watching the trace output. It's that simple. The tracer is useful for all .NET developers, but especially for those doing embedded development in .NET Compact Framework: it allows you to enable in-target-debugging during development or at customer sites - a situation where a traditional debugger isn't an option. Letting the tracer add trace-instructions to all methods and turn them on/off at runtime can easily save many, many days of work, so you can spend your time on the fun and interesting parts instead of adding endless trace-messages.
