Version 5.5 provides better support for Silverlight applications and also includes a number of bug fixes and improvements to usability.

• Introduced error reporting, dependency embedding, and strings encoding with compression & encryption for Silverlight applications
• Simplified processing Silverlight .xap files
• Improvements when viewing error reports, including categorization of reports by the error they contain
• Other bug fixes

This is a recommended upgrade for all users of SmartAssembly 5.0 and 5.1.

Known issues:

• When using error reporting with Silverlight, only public fields are included in the report.
• The SDK samples provided in SmartAssembly 5.5 Professional require the .NET 4.0 client profile. If you try to open the .csproj file in Visual Studio and you do not have the .NET 4.0 client profile, you will receive the following error:
  'Unable to read the project file... The tools version "4.0" is unrecognized'. 
  If you receive this error, open the project file in a text editor and,  in the following line, change the ToolsVersion to "2.0":
  <Project DefaultTargets="Build" ToolsVersion="4.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
• Some features (including error reporting) do not work on Silverlight applications built for Windows Phone 7.
