ClickOnce

[Chapooki]

Hi everybody, I'm developing a windows based app. We are still in developing phase, so there are a lot of changes which should be sent to users every day. I need a suitable publishing method and found ClickOnce a good solution for our regular updates. But, there are some problems: 1) The app is multilayer with couple of projects. each project has some config and some user defined meta data files which should be with exe file. How can I add them to ClickOnce? just the config file of the exe project is added!!!! 2) there are some projects which are loaded by reflection in app. So there is no direct dependency between them and exe project, how can I add them too? Thanks, :-\

Presumably you have the configs stored in a file somewhere, add the file(s) to the project. We store user configs in their app data folder but that is for stuff created by the app and is not downloaded. As for 2, get rid of reflections - this is a design issue. OR add a dependency to the assembly, this probably has the same affect as referencing the project anyway so there is probably limited value in using reflections for late binding.

Never underestimate the power of human stupidity RAH
