Native Code Compilation

Samuel

Is it possible to compile .NET code (VB or C#) to native code for easier
installation of some older systems such as win 98?

Thank you,
Samuel

All .Net applications are compiled to native code when they are started. You
might consider creating a native image on the destination machine using
ngen.exe.

But you'll still need the .NET runtime right?

It would be nice if you could statically compile a .NET app so that the
runtime is not needed.

Right.

Static linking is not supported.

What is the .NET runtime? is it just one dll file

And why everyone (or most people) uses the .NET framework specifically for
Win 98 where it takes so long to load the Framework

Thank you,
Samuel

It lets you write once deploy anywhere... well more or less :)

Several DLLs. A common platform containing basic stuff and an environment
(eg memory managemant) usable by many languages.

Maybe because it's required if you write VB.Net applications.
