    Although read days of materials of .net on code project and msdn, i still not very clearly on the .net deploying. What i want to design is a application of drawing and editing. I find the gdi+ in .net (i know gdi+ can deploy with a seperate gdiplus.dll) very helpful to my programming and i also want to make use of .net's new form framework, which events will ease my GUI building. But other stuff in .net like Database interface and web design is of no use to me at this moment. To deploy the two features, do i need to package whole .NET? I think it will be too big for a small drawing application. And what's more my users still take win98 as main stream platform. Can anyone experienced in this field give me some hint? Thank you a lot

What you probably don't realize is that Windows Forms relies on many different parts of the framework. In fact I'd guess it uses just about every assembly in the framework (except for the web and sockets parts). Chen, Fu wrote: And what's more my users still take win98 as main stream platform. Win98 is fine, Win95 however is not supported for .NET, though I don't know if you can trick the framework into running on Win95.

        Thank you James! well, then will microsoft prepare a public .NET runningtime for us, just like the DirectX8? If it does exist, where is it? what's its size? tens of Mbytes? Still a question? can visual studio .NET compile our code into native code? if not, How about the .NET virtual machine's speed?

            how do you compile to native code in c++? -------------------------- One problem with the programmer's mentality is insecurity. This goes deep. An insulting college litany says that failed mathematicians become computer programmers. They are also ridiculed for being nerdy losers, for being too fat or too skinny, and for having few social skills. Most programmers can be spotted easily in a crowd. Nobody really wants to hang out with them. Put thousands of these people in one company and if you can get them to work, you become a billiona

                and how do you tell the compiler NOT to compile to native code =) I didn't know about these options, so I'm only asking for my own knowledge -------------------------- One problem with the programmer's mentality is insecurity.
