Hi Folks

Not sure if this is the right place; it says configuration
and deployment, and this is about deploying a win app.

I'm working on a Win App, and soon I will need to package
it and ship it to the client.

However since it's been written in managed code, the
client will need to have the framework installed. How
would you write an installer that checks for the existence
of the framework and prompts the user to install it if not
found? Is there any third party application that does
that? I'm assuming it will have to be written in unmanaged
code. Is that right?

Thanks

Dear anonymous,

you might want to check the .NET Framework Deployment Guide.

If you're using .NET 1.0, look here:

If you're using .NET 1.1, it's here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnnetdep/html/dotnetframedepguid1_1.asp
