When I wrote my first application for Silverlight on Symbian, I kept getting this annoying
message I really didnt get why was it.

Finally I downloaded the Bing Xap file and looked at it. And it seams it was just something simple.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Deployment 
xmlns=http://schemas.microsoft.com/client/2007/deployment
xmlns:x=http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml
ExternalCallersFromCrossDomain="ScriptableOnly"
EntryPointAssembly="BingNokia"
EntryPointType="BingNokia.App"

RuntimeVersion="2.0.31005.0"

>
  <Deployment.Parts>
    <AssemblyPart x:Name="BingNokia" Source="BingNokia.dll" />
    <AssemblyPart x:Name="Microsoft.Windows.Controls.WatermarkedTextBox" Source="Microsoft.Windows.Controls.WatermarkedTextBox.dll" />
    <AssemblyPart x:Name="Mvc" Source="Mvc.dll" />
    <AssemblyPart x:Name="System.Xml.Linq" Source="System.Xml.Linq.dll" />
  </Deployment.Parts>
</Deployment>

My runtime version was wrong.

<Deployment 
xmlns=http://schemas.microsoft.com/client/2007/deployment
xmlns:x=http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml
EntryPointAssembly="NokiaTest1"
EntryPointType="NokiaTest1.App"
RuntimeVersion="3.0.40818.0"> <Deployment.Parts> <AssemblyPart x:Name="NokiaTest1" Source="NokiaTest1.dll" /> </Deployment.Parts> </Deployment>

I still dont how to customize my AppManifest file
I suppose that behaviour is due to the fact that I have Silverlight 3 installed in my machine.
So what I did is that I compiled my application. Then renamed my .xap for .zip. Extracted my AppManifest.xml and modified it
changing the runtime version and copied it back to my .xap file. And voila!

Silverlight for Nokia!! WOW! Just about time

I am a big fan of mobile applications and recently due to our migration activities
(we now offer migrations from VB6 and WinForms to Silverlight)
have been involved with Silverlight programming.

I have done some mobile application development activities
in J2EE and flash and I am now very happy with Silverlight.

What makes me even happier is that I am a Symbian fan and I can now
start developing applications for my Nokia phone with silverlight.
