Additional runtimes required?
![Post Post](./styles/afterburner/imageset/icon_post_target.gif)
I'd like more info on the runtime requirements of Phalanger-compiled applications.
The documentation says we need to include phalanger.msi with our programs. Unfortunately, the installer is huge (8.9MB) and will make our 20KB applications several hundred times larger!
So, what I'd like to know is, do users need to install phalanger.msi before they can run executables compiled by Phalanger, or is this just a licensing thing where we should be distributing phalanger along with our apps? Is it simply sufficient that a user has the .NET 2.0 framework installed in order to run EXEs made by phalanger?
If it is a licensing thing, would it be sufficient to include a link in the documentation (a readme file, or a web link file in the folder)? The requirement to include an 8.9MB installer with our applications makes it impossible to produce lightweight applications for quick download off the net.
