I have the following code in a full .NET framework solution: public delegate int CreateObjectDelegate( [In] ref Guid classID, [In] ref Guid interfaceID, [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Interface)] out object outObject); ... var createObject = (NativeMethods.CreateObjectDelegate) Marshal.GetDelegateForFunctionPointer( NativeMethods.GetProcAddress(_modulePtr, "CreateObject"), typeof (NativeMethods.CreateObjectDelegate)); object result; Guid interfaceId = _guid; Guid classID = _classId; createObject(ref classID, ref interfaceId, out result); The purpose is to create the needed COM object at runtime. Is it possible with any .NET compact framework? Note that it doesn't have Marshal.GetDelegateForFunctionPointer.
