Installer class

VS 2003 had a predefined template for an Installer class. That seems to have
disappeared from VS2005. Am I right? Or has it just been moved? Or is it
superceded by a new way of doing the same thing.

Thanks!

Hello Andrew,

System.Configuration.Install.Installer class?
It's supported in .NET 3/2/1.1

Have u added the reference to the configuration lib?

Look for the "Web Setup Project" template.

On the VS 2005 menu: "File", "New Project", "Other Project Types", "Setup and Deployment".
All this, *after* having opened your project.

Select the "Web Setup Project" to create an ASP.NET installer.

I understand the class is still there. The template is what I can't find in
VS2005. Under VS2003 it was under Add Component.
