Running a program from CD

Okay, easy question for this newsgroup, but difficult for me being new.

I have an application in where the user can either install the program to
their machine or they can run this from the CD. However, in testing the
program where PCs without the .NET Framework installed, there of course is
an error message. How and where would I write a file to check for the .NET
framework and if it is not present, then install dotnetfx (which I have
provided on the CD)?

Thanks for the information.

I am not sure whether our tool would interest you, salamander linker and mini-deployment tool, which can generate a package that contains your own application and a very small subset of the CLR runtime files. You can copy the generated directory to a CD, and your app will launch w/o .NET installation on the target machine. More info can be found here

A trial version will be posted soon

Hello, I would like to prevent my perl program to be executed several times simultaneously (if the program is already running, I would like to display a message like "another instance of this program is already running, please try again in a couple of minutes). For doing this, I guess I have to check the running processes... but I don't know how to do that and how I can identify my program in the running processes.

What would be a good way to check programmatically whether a service was running? We have a service that dies periodically and I need to check to see if this service is running. I know how to check to see if the status is in stopped or running mode. But that doesn't tell me if it is actually running. I need to know this so that if it happens I can programmatically start the same service on another machine.

Hi, I'm trying to find a decent way to measure program running time. I know clock() is probably the standard way of doing it but clock_t overflows too quickly. The target program running time ranges from a few seconds to a day. Is there a decent+portable way to deal with this? Thank you.
