Hi All, Currently I am working with the Webserver project on the Netduino Plus, and one of the requirement is the text compression. I have tries 2 ways, first is to use the third party library for the compression, ICSharp Library and unfortunately, the deployment is not successful and I think because of the size is too big[[probably since the dll is nearly 200KB]]. Another way is to use the System.IO under standard .NET framework, but under the Micro Framework, the System.IO is so minimal for me to do so. Do you guys have any other suggestions for the text compression? Thank you very much for your helps.

You might want to try hacking up the open source Compact Framework version of the DotNetZip library. It is 130K, but I bet it could be made smaller to get just the basics...

If your trying to do HTTP compression, then you need a GZIP library, not ZIP. How compression works in GZIP and ZIP is different.

Well, then I guess it's a good thing that DotNetZip has gzip assemblies.
