Using Threads with XML for Windows Embedded CE (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
The desktop implementation of the XML control gives you two threading options. The rental model is designed for access by a single thread. This is the model that the DOMDocument object uses. The free-threaded model, used by the FreeThreadedDomDocument object is designed to be accessed by multiple threads.
Windows Embedded CE-based devices do not support the FreeThreadedDomDocument or, by extension, the free-threading model. Take care when designing your system to ensure that each DOMDocument object is used only on the thread it was created on.
