Remove readonly in Compact Framework

c#, compact-framework

Solution

You could use the OpenNetCF Smart Device Framework, which has a FileHelper class that implements the SetAttributes function.

Or if you don't want to go that route, you could PInvoke the native SetFileAttributes method.

Problem

What is the preferred way to remove the readonly attribute of a file in Compact Framework as we don't have a File::SetAttributes?
