.NET Includes Question

[Tom Andrecht]

Does anyone know if it is possible compile an application in .NET in such a
way that it includes the parts from the .NET framework that it needs? I'm
trying to update my development environment so that I can use VS .NET 2008,
but don't want to have to require my clients to install the framework if I
can include the neccesary pieces in my application. Thank You.

If you want to run a .NET applicaiton, you'll need to install the entire
..NET Framework.

Tom,

No this does not work on Dos 1.0.

There's various .Net linkers that allow you to do that. Ie. Remotesoft's
Salamander (http://www.remotesoft.com/linker/)
or you could package the entire application using something like Thinstall
from VMWare ((http://www.thinstall.com/) or Xenocode
(http://www.xenocode.com/)
