Hello Friends.
Can anyone provide me .net framework 2 or higher true addon.i need it very much.

kal · Post by **kal** » Thu Sep 18, 2008 8:52 pm

There's no true addon avalaible (yet) for .net framework >= 2.

But why is this not available??????

Becuase it is nearly impossible to build and none of us get paid for this.

Trust me... we all would love to have this. I was glad to see OnePiece actually was able to make a 1.1 true addon.

Hi.Boys i am wonderful and worry to know that there is no addon available.As KELS said that it is impossible but how?is it very difficult or it can't be slipstreamed?

alur · Post by **alur** » Fri Sep 19, 2008 6:01 pm

Everything is possible, it's just very hard in this case. It's hard to justify all the work needed to get it "slipstreamed" when you can just use a silent installer instead.

There would be a huge difference in the windows install time if it were possible to create a true addon for it. dotnet installers take a very long time to install. But true addons are completly integrated into the windows setup so it would take almost no time at all to install. I think if anyone could do it... it would be OnePiece since he was able to do a 1.1 version. But even he said it wouldn't be any time soon (if ever) that he would be able to make the newer versions.

My guess is that it wouldn't speed things up as much as one might think. The .NET Runtime Optimization service would still need to make a pass at some point during setup.

Hi.Onepeice please make true addon of .net framework 2.0 or higher for us.

You don't get it m8.

It would be SUPER HARD and VERY time consuming. (Possible days of testing and coding)

None of us get paid for this.

There is a silent installer made for all .net frameworks USE IT!!!

Unless you want to actually pay one of us to try to make it...

Plus, I also don't get why everyone is so hung up about true addons. All that "true addons" are doing is (1) converting one type of setup process (in this case, MSI plus whatever custom steps are done by post-setup processes that may be spawned) to another type (SetupAPI), and then (2) hooking that to the main Windows install in a particular way. If the MSI->SetupAPI conversion is trivial, then that's great (the second part, about hooking it up to the install via SYSOC, is of dubious value, IMO, and it's usually better to repackage it as a SFX'ed rundll32 from svcpack, but that's something for another thread). But people seem to forget that SetupAPI is old Win95-era technology that is very, very limited in what it can do, and for more complex setups (like .NET), trying to shoehorn MSI into SetupAPI requires doing a lot of ugly things, which are subject to human error (plus, there are some things that you simply *cannot* do with SetupAPI, at least without spawning some sort of separate process for it). Even if someone created a true .NET installer, I wouldn't use it because I simply won't trust any setup that's been put through the MSI->SetupAPI meat grinder like that.

So... my question is, do you even understand what your request is? Barring the question of difficulty and effort, do you even understand the advantages and disadvantages of the two approaches for .NET? And if not, then why the heck do you have such a strong preference for one over the other?

maybe through a wix installer it will install faster ... ?:

instead of telling the system what to do in a step-by-step fashion, it tells it what state the system should end up in after installation: this includes files, shortcuts, registry entries, and all the other possible tasks you might want your installer to perform.

i personally dont know as i didn't get around testing this for myself.. this may be more suitable for vanilla installations & not for long term running systems
from what i understood installing through the wix installer, security setting aren't written or compiled as with the vanilla .dotnet installer so there is a caspol.exe to administrate security settings for it (found in the article...)

if someone wants to test it out get the script and the wix-toolset to compile it

[link to the wix manual][artical link]

then there is some thing like dotNetInstaller project
Article
dotNetInstaller

where .dotnet and other dependencies are installed accordingly to the system needs and user authority ..

posting this for the sake of linking & i haven't tried any of these yet

bober101 · Post by **bober101** » Sat Sep 20, 2008 8:37 pm

well id simply extract the install files to a folder and make it run like that,yes it would occupy more space on the CD but ud skip the extraction process...

well, right or wrong, Onepiece is going to release to beta testers his .NET 2 true addon which seems to work

After 2 weeks of tests and hours of work, we've got a .Net 2.0 true addon which works like a charm when executed from desktop but it isn't able to do same way when integrated in XP CD
This because there' s no known way to make ngen.exe to work at T14/T15.

So we give up. Sorry.

Jamshed_11946 · Post by **Jamshed_11946** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 10:53 am

Ok
Thanks.Now i will never wait for this addon but switchless installer is a good way.

hmm just a question

is this file needed to finish the setup

why don't you use Svcpack or GuiRunonce to finish it

just a little fix until a true fix to the problem appears

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 5:03 pm

since files are only needing to be placed @locations with the setup & with nothing else planned to run prior to T-13

files are only being slapped into there location with very basic reg entries using only inf based installations till that point

dedicated scripts or original script installs can be run only after that time

running scripted installs of any kind at T-13 is already late for inf based installs that are just transferring files and reg settings (the point where true setup installs are over and switchless installes kick in)

.net requires more then simple settings (needing its setup routines ran from an already running desktop! mostly Recommended

same like it is impossible, nothing initially can make it substantial as a true addon.

that is a bad thing sadly a true addon would have helped

any way thx Eng_User for your answer

and thx nonno fabio and Onepiece for your hard work guys

back to svcpack

What is this "request" business does it mean that you just request what you desire and somebody just bows to your needs like ordering a pizza,

I think this is one of those threads that everyone gets mad because of misunderstandings due to different cultures. Some cultures are demanding while others aren't. Also some cultures do not know when someone is being funny because they don't read the post in the same way as it was intended.

Bottom line is we all would love to see some true addons for dotnet. But the chances of it happening is slim to none. OnePiece did the impossible and created a 1.1 dotnet true addon. Which is very cool. Which probably got everyones hopes up for other true dotnet addons. But if OnePiece says he can not do it... then I'd have to say the other dotnet addons may remain switchless installer for a very long time. I would have to say (and I bet most in here will agree) OnePiece is one of the greatest Addon creators in here. He has made so many UpdatePack/Addons of so many things that people were requesting. Plus many other great addon creators are in this thread saying that it is not possible or worth the effort to create one.

These wise words should be sticked in every forum, every subforum, at least in some way to have all readers read it, and thus hopefully understand it.

so it`s possible maybe be hard but it`s still possible

so this topic is not needed

he would try it and then post it that`s all

Major social malfunction between members.
