c# - What's the best way to identify a WinCE device and call a correct DLL based on the results? -

i've been struggling while. have different devices need run corporate app on. written using .net cf 1.1. both have own managed dlls need called serial number off gun.

i have yet find safe way call one, , if fails, move on call next. exception occurs outside of application , can't caught, crashing app.

these dlls copied in software, can't file check on device.

is there guys can think of allow me identify 1 device on other without hard crashing , let me call appropriate dll without problem?

i did using referenced dlls directly, through reflection (one dll need methodinfo.invoke, , other field value).

any , appreciated. thank you!

p/invoke systemparametersinfo spi_getoeminfo see if oem has provided platform-specific string can for. oems have own specific registry entries platform name, might able remote registry viewer , switch on if find one.

there's example of this, detecting barcode scanner manufacturer no less, on msdn.
