Running ASP.Net Application without .Net Framework
Hi All,
I have made a Windows Application in ASP.Net. Now I want to install it in a remote machine which does not have .Net Framework loaded in it. Can my application still work as an exe ???
Not unless you created an installer that would also install the necessary DLLs.
Unless this is a commercial application that you hope to sell hundreds or more of, it's not worth the effort. Just tell the user to install the .Net framework, first. And be sure to give them a download link to the correct version thereof.
I only did this twice, way back with ASP.NET version 1.1. I've really forgotten too much to be helpful. And in any case I think MS has improved the "packager" since then.
You should be able to search MSDN for help doing this.
