Castle.InversionOfControl


Things left out:
- Logging facility
- almost all Castle.Windsor.Adapters.ComponentModel namespace
- serialization & remoting stuff
- FastCreateInstance
- web related stuff (WebUserControlComponentActivator, PerWebRequestLifestyleManager, 
- configuration stuff - no System.Configuration in CF (several things in Castle.Windsor.Configuration namespace)
- DebuggerDisplay attribute usages
- child containers support in DefaultComponentInstaller (same as SL build)
- MixinInspector & ComponentProxyInspector
- StartableFacilityRegistrationExtensions - uses System.Linq.Expressions (not in CF)
- PerThreadThreadStaticLifestyleManager - uses ThreadStatic (not in CF)
- DefaultProxyFactory - uses DynamicProxy (not ported)


Modifications:
- replaced Type.EmptyTypes with new Type[0] everywhere
- created CompactFrameworkExtensions to implement:
  - replacement of Actionvator.CreateInstance(Type type, params object[] args)
  - TypeUtil.GetAllInterfaces that is currently in DynamicProxy (not included)
- replaced override of Delegate.CreateDelegate used in EventWiringFacility (need to test this)
- replaced usage of type.MakeArrayType() with Type.GetType(type.FullName + "[]") in TypedFactoryComponentCollection (needs more testing but seems to work)
- AllTypes.FromAssemblyNamed has same behavior as SL build
- alternative implementation of FromAssemblyDescriptor.SelectedTypes (no Assembly.GetExportedTypes in CF)
- alternative implementation of ServiceDescriptor.FromInterface (no Type.GetInterfaces in CF)
- alternative implementation of ComponentModelConverter - needs testing
- replaced System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture by System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture
- replaced initialization of this.kernel.ProxyFactory with a new instance of NotSupportedProxyFactory in WindsorContainer
- replaced [ThreadStatic] attribute on DefaultKernel.currentCreationContext field with an equivalent implementation using TLS (NEEDS TESTING!!!)


TODO:
- research how to detect "out" parameters (ParameterInfo.IsOut not supported in CF) in TypedFactoryRegistrationExtensions


I don't know how to integrate the Tests project.
