Like the title says, my installation of VC# 2005 Beta 2 doesn't seem to have
a Setup kind of project available. Actually, except for the Screensaver
Starter Kit, it has only four types: Windows app., Console app., Library and
Empty project. I have the .Net Framework SDK 2.0 installed (of course, also
the Framework) but no use.
I was used to this handy kind of project since VS 2003 but now I have to
resort to 3rd party software to deploy my applications.
There is indeed the Publish feature, but for unknown reasons to me, it
always fails to complete saying that "a project failed to build". Otherwise,
the main application compiles and runs perfectly.
So, what's the answer?
Thanks in advance.

If you did everything right when install the VS2005 Beta2, then the most
possible answer is to wait for VS2005 release. It is beta and it is expected
something would ot be there and something would not work as expected and
deploying app made by beta is not good idea, t say the least, not to mention
possible violation of lisence.

Thanks for answering to my question. Anyways, I tried for the past few days
to reach some kind of reference on deploying applications with VC#2005, but
it seems like I can't find any. Everything I came across is written for
VS2003, except for some blog article saying something about the ClickOnce
technology but it wasn't too useful.
Would it make any difference if I'd mentioned that I have Visual C# Express
Beta2, not VisualStudio 2005?
As for licensing issues, I don't think it would be such a matter since I
only needed to deploy an (non-commercial) app. to a few computers on my LAN.
And, BTW, when is the VS2005 release supposed to come out?
Thanks once again.
I really do not know if VS2005 Express has the "Setup" project template or
not (I doubt it will has one). I think the "Publish" on the menu is the one
you want (if it works on your beta). Althougt the VS2K5Express Beta is free
download, when formal realsed, you have to pay for it, I think. It is only
known that VS2005 (probably and VS2005 Express) WILL be release second half
of this year (from July 1st to Dec.31st), if it is somehow postpones to next
year, I would not be supprised.

I appreciate answering again to my question. Indeed, it seems natural to
have to pay for the official release (although it would be nice to be free ;)
).
Looks like I'll have to either wait for the release or switch back to
VS2003. Until then, if you have any links that could point me in the right
direction on using the Publish feature in Express I'd be grateful.

AFAIK, the Express editions don't support standard setup projects. For
information about diferent versions and pricing, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/howtobuy/vs2005/

Hi,
Im using the "setup project" in Visual Studio 2003 (v7.1) to create an MSI
install package.
The problem is that I need to run a .INF file on the target machine at the
end of the installation but can't find how to... I don't really want to
leave instructions for the person installing the software to do it manually.
Is it possible ?

Hey All,
I have created an application and an installer for it using Visual
Studios "Setup and Deployment" project template. It works great (for
the simplicity that I require) except that it doesn't allow multiple
instances.
The user needs to be able to install 1 or more copies of the program on
to their computer (in different directories).

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
