Hi everyone,

I have certain doubt regarding .exe file. I have seen that the desktop application(.exe) created in VB.NET requires .NET framework to be installed in order to run the .exe file. I have seen small desktop application(.exe) which runs without the need of .NET framework. Can I know where those application are made?

I know if I use Free Pascal I can do it, but the size of Free Pascal .exe file is far too large.

Waiting for an answer.

Thanks in Advance,
Ajish
 

if a programmer use .NET framework library in his/her code, you should install .NET framework on your machine to execute that program.
usually visual studio's programming languages use .NET framework library.

If you consider the amount required .NET DLL library that must be linked to the program run, the efective HD size space is grater than .exe Free Pascal.

Absolutely correct. But dll will be loaded to the RAM only when it is required. But in case of an exe file it gets loaded to the RAM and stays there until we quit the application.

Any suggestions?
