General discussion

the real runtime

Nov 24, 2007 11:36PM PST

hi

i m a end-user for coding and scripting

my question is

in today , even microsoft give C++.net or VB.net FREE , and we make projects in that , BUT they need a runtime ,, like to run VB.net apps one will need NETFRAME WORK 2 (good for vista users becaz they give framework in that but poor for XP!!)

what the google talk to do to run in every computer
what nero do to run in every computer

WITHOUT ANY FRAMEWORK OR RUNTIME SUPPORT

or if so it's setup will give error that it is not appiciable in this OS ,,

HOW TO DO THAT??

They probably use full versions of compilers and a "team" to build their applications. Many of them have been programming for more than a decade.

A few ideas...

1) Set up the applications as web applications so that the server running the application has the framework and is the only one you have to worry about, though it isn't clear if this is a reasonable possibility.

2) Create an install program for the Windows application so that it will make sure that the .Net framework and any other pre-requisite components are installed.

3) Use older versions of C++ which are built on the Win32 API instead of the .Net Framework if you want to remove the requirement of the end user having the framework.
