Setup & Deployment

gad
Hi,

I have a program that use a private dll.
After making a setup project and install it in a client's computer
i want to update only the dll instaed of sending him the full setup.
How can i do that in the setup project?

Thanks

You could create an installer for this dll only. If you want to support
the installers for a full product lifecycle, it would be better to
consider WiX for creating your installers.

You can find information at http://wix.sourceforge.net/
