conversion from .Net to winRT

Question

I have following code; I want to convert it for winRT. Actually, I dont know how to handle ISerializable, Serializable, SerializationInfo and COMPACT_FRAMEWORK

using System;
using System.Collections;
#if !COMPACT_FRAMEWORK
using System.Runtime.Serialization;
#endif

namespace Coversant.Attributes
{
    [Serializable]
public class AssertionFailedError : Exception
      #if !COMPACT_FRAMEWORK, ISerializable
      #endif
    {
      #if !COMPACT_FRAMEWORK
    protected AssertionFailedError(SerializationInfo info, StreamingContext context) :        base(info, context){}
      #endif
}

}

Answer 1

Well, COMPACT_FRAMEWORK is I believe what you would have on some old, small devices and the preprocessor directives (#if, #endif) simply delimit code that should be used when the code is compiled when building for anything but Compact Framework. WinRT is actually similar in having these missing, but also has the Serializable attribute missing so you would do something like this, which is essentially a simple Exception class definition that doesn't include any new or overridden members:

using System;
using System.Collections;
#if (!COMPACT_FRAMEWORK && !NETFX_CORE)
using System.Runtime.Serialization;
#endif

namespace Coversant.Attributes
{
#if !NETFX_CORE
    [Serializable]
#endif
    public class AssertionFailedError : Exception
#if (!COMPACT_FRAMEWORK && !NETFX_CORE)
    , ISerializable
#endif
    {
#if (!COMPACT_FRAMEWORK && !NETFX_CORE)
        protected AssertionFailedError(SerializationInfo info, StreamingContext context) :        base(info, context){}
#endif
    }
}
