Hi
My setup project creates three files. This is a slight problem as when
sending link to clients I need to send three links and they have to download
all three files in the same folder before installing app. Is it not possible
to have a single file setup?
Thanks
Regards

Distribute the MSI file only (and add optional downloads for the other
files).

Alternatively, you could just zip all files into single archive for
download.

This will work too but it will require the user to have a ZIP
application installed (there is native ZIP support available in Windows
XP, I know). In many cases, the user won't need the updates for the
Windows Installer, so creating separate packages is IMO the best
approach (and providing an additional complete download package would be
a good idea too).

There's also self-extracting archives.
I'm not trying to compete with you, just offering alternatives. ^_^

Doesn't the .Net Framework installation use the same version of MSI as the
deployment project created setup files? In that case, anyone who has the
Framework has the right MSI version, and anyone who doesn't have the
framework can't run your app anyway.

Code I'm working on has to parse large and complex files and detect

Which of the Windows/Unix package builders for Python applications is
capable of creating single-file executables? I'm thinking of:
1. py2exe
2. Mcmillan Installer/PyInstaller
3. cxfreeze
The apps I've seen created by py2exe aren't single-file at all, the
install folder is full of files besides the main program. I'm looking

I am working on a project where we need to host a growing number of web

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.
