hai

I have developed a application for monitoring serial port. It is done in C # in dot net express edition.

How to distribute this application to 98 or 2000 or XP envirnments without dot net?

I have created a setup from the publish menu of express edition but when the setup is run on other systems without dot net ,it goes to Microsoft site for some downloads. So how to make this programe a independent distributable without dot net already in the system or a internet connection?

Please suggest

dot net frame work is requiired to run c sharp application.

But there must be some method to pack required dot net components in the installation package so that installation creates all required modules in target system. how to do that?

hi

i never heared that there is a method to do such thing and i donnot think there is.

.net framework is the main part of the distribution of any .net application

like java u cannot run a java application without installing java virtual machine

and also .net cannot run any windows versions less that win2000 so it cannot run in windows 98

but in the future windows versions the .net will be a part of the installation of the winodws and developer will not need to setup .net in target machines as it already exists


best wishes

Thanks for the info.

So if we develop applications in C Sharp it is almost not practical to deploy in other not so advanced OS .

I think we can pack dot net frame work installer and our application in a single executable using any set up making utility and run it. So that dot net frame work will install and later our application.

Is the idea reasonable or return to Visual C++?

will it is suppose that .net framwork exists for other operating systems just like the java virtual machine ,but microsoft never do that as far as i know because if people can program by .net in other operating systems why they will use windows
,if microsoft made that it could be like killing it self (just my opinion) but some people implement the .net framework in linux i think it is called Mono project

yes ,but u donnot need event to pack them together clients can install the .net framwork by them self u can just include the the .net framework distribution package with your program without packing them together

if u want to program for windows the future is for c#
