More permissive license? about wmilight HOT 9 CLOSED

Apparently, I have tested this wrong before. WmiLight seems to be using COM also as the calls seem to be failing with

WMI failed while retrieving device ID. Built-in COM has been disabled via a feature switch. See https://aka.ms/dotnet-illink/com for more information.

now.

On .NET 6, I was already using <TrimMode>CopyUsed</TrimMode> with System.Management library and it was working. But I wanted to use the Link mode, which I'm guessing means Full on .NET 7; and that was crashing.

I've enabled COM with WmiLight now and the full trim mode, it's working better than System.Management which is great. So I guess that's what the commenter meant.

Hey,

ich have changed the license to MIT. Have fun with it.

What kind of project do you are using WmiLight?

from wmilight.

Fantastic! Thank you.

It's an enterprise level desktop application where we gather a couple of information about Windows such as Windows version and device Id. We don't depend on WMI that much but we need that information in the way WMI reports.
Our goal wasn't to fix the memory leak you mentioned in the readme, but rather move away from COM.

WmiLight uses also COM :-(

It's possible that this comment meant that trimming works better even when COM is enabled on the project. I will try that next.

Ok, meaning you would like to shink the size of your application by using the trimming function during build?

from wmilight.

Partial trim woks if this is an option.

<BuiltInComInteropSupport>true</BuiltInComInteropSupport>
<TrimMode>partial</TrimMode>

Ok, very nice.

Have fun!
