9781861007711: Visual Basic .NET Deployment Handbook

Synopsis

This book aims to cover all that the developer needs to know about deploying non-web-based .NET applications and components. The book will act as both tutorial and reference to Visual Basic .NET developers of all levels whether they are in-house Windows application developers (who traditionally used VB6), third-party developers, or consultants.
What you will learn from this book: the strategies and options available for deploying .NET applications; Advanced Windows Installer techniques; how to secure your applications, including code access security; maintaining your applications with configuration and resource files; how to use the Global Assembly Cache to share assemblies between applications; side-by-side installations of different versions of the same assembly; the various licensing options available, including developer-to-developer licensing; and the legal and technical issues involved in protecting your work.
This book assumes that you are a Visual Basic .NET developer already proficient in developing .NET applications, but no prior experience in deploying applications is required. This book is essential for anyone needing to deploy .NET applications.
