Re: Selecting prerequisites in setup project. Vis studio 2005

I just tried experimenting.
I checked dotnet in prerequisites and didnt add any files to my setup
project as I found later that the compile finds them from somewhere and
creates a subdirectory called "dotnetfx" to be created at the same place as
my setup file with dotnetfx.exe in there.
I added \dotnetfx\dotne tfx.exe as the InstallUrl property for the setup
When run, I got message that dotnet wasnt installed, but that was it. The
installation stopped and dotnet wasnt installed.
What am i missing to get the installer to run the dotnetfx.exe file?

Hi,

IIRC there is an article in MSDN lib about this. It was for the 1.1

Take a look at this article http://msmvps.com/blogs/haarongonzal...09/772757.aspx

Am I missing something here? I am checking the radio button "Download prerequisites from the same location as my application" so that I can include the .Net 2.0 framework with my application setup. I created a VM running Win2k copied over the setup (and the dotnetfx directory) and when I run the install it just tries to install the dotnetfx from the Web ! ! What else so I need to do? Thanks!

I have serveral web sites that I need to deploy using a Visual Studio 2005 Web Setup Project. The target IIS has both .NET 1.1 and 2.0 installed. So, I need the setup project to set the ASP.NET Version property on the new virtual folder. The setup does everything else correctly, it creates the virtual folder, copies the files, creates the application.

I want to deploy a service with a windows app and the setup program must conform to the Vista certification requirements. Can that be done with the standard .net setup project? Assuming cost is an issue, what else is available?

Im transferring a visual studio 2003 project to Visual Studio 2005. The solution includes a windows installation project. With 2003 creating the setup got complicated with the crystal reports part and I had to include several merge projects plus obtain a license key. Is it the same with 2005? Im recreating the setup from the bottom. I dont think I found any merge files in 2005 directories. Should I point setup at the old ones? thanks...

My C# code is I18N'ed by appropriately naming and editing .resx files. At execution time, it works. My C++ code is somewhat I18N'ed. When I put UI code in C++ I use .rc files.

Well anyway, at execution time it seems to be working, except when a third party's DLL has a secret dependency. But what about the installer? A Visual...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
