Question to the floor...

If you wanted to publish a ClickOnce app outside of VS would you:

a) use MSBuild
b) use mage/mageui
c) use ClickThrough

I'm particularly interested in 'why'? Under what circumstances would one approach be preferable to another?

Hope this gets people thinking!

Tamim.

Hi Tamim,

If you have the entire project, the preferred way is to use MSBuild the build and publish the project.

If you only have the executable as well as referenced assemblies, you can onlyuse the Mage/MageUI to create the deployment and application manifests forthe application andcopy the generated manifests as well as executable and assemblies to the publish location you like manually.

Sincerely,
Linda Liu
