Hi All !

We're investigating a smart client solution for our next app. Loading the app through IE works fine,
but it takes ages before the app show up. I guess this is because there's several megabytes of dll's
to download (3rd party libraries etc.)

Any suggestions here.

1) Should we make an install for these runtime libraries ?
2) If yes on 1. -> where should the libraries be installed ?
3) Any othere suggestions

Any help are greatly appreciated

TIA


Best wishes

As I understand, the runtime only downloads the dll in a per need basis, not
unless of course you need those dlls during startup.
 
Which method of deployment you use depends on a great many things. For example

1. Does your app need to run under a security level higher than that granted to IE
2. How many people will be using your app
3. Does your app have an offline scenario

Give me some basics and I'll point you in the direction I would go.
