Re: building my .exe can it run anywhere?



IMHO

On anny Windows computer connected to the internet it is pretty safe to
asume that the .Net framework is installed
You might even built a Installer that checks for the correct framework and
if it is not installed download and install this from the MS website

Another question might be,, do you want your programs to run on outdated
computers wich do not have the required servicpacks installed
thus users blaming your software while it are actually solved bugs ?


If the .Net framework is installed then a executable is normally XCOPY
deployable if you provide all the eventuall dependancy`s


if you really want to go low level thus application starting as native on
the Windows operating system then you might consider anny Assembly like
language .

Say I build a simple .exe file.

n exe that will look at a file, read that file and put the contents
into an email. If I take the .exe that I built from the Bin\Release
folder and copy it to a machine will it work or do I need to make sure
that I have dot net installed and all of this ?

What is the best way to build an .exe so that I can run it on most
machines without any updates?

thanks.
