How can I embed .net runtime in exe application ?

Hi there ,

I have build a simple application that contains windows form using visual c++ 2008 . When I run it on my PC it was ok , but on other machines that doesn’t have .net runtime I got a strange message told me to reinstall the application .

What I am trying to do is to build an application that works on any machine that doesn’t have .net runtime .

Is there a way to embed .net runtime in exe application .

Regards ,

Ahmad

The answer to your question is "No."

You can't run a .Net application on a machine without installing the .Net Framework.

In your deployment, specify the appropriate version of the .Net Framework as a prerequisite and it will install it if needed for the application to run.
