Click once Part 1

Suppose we have a desktop application(winform) and we need to convert it (get it) worked in web environment, Hard to maintain

Microsoft develop the new platform of having by click application execution, run from the network or install from the network (add shortcut) in local computer or event the legacy way of CDROM.

Called ClickOnce, Microsoft ship those platform with nice tools which ease to develop and handle so migrating your application to click once can be very easy and fun.

Things you need to look for when deploy ClickOnce in (for) your application,

• Security - Its hard to maintain secutiy permission sets acquired for the application deployment because each change in development phase can react on the deployment phase which is too risky.
I prefer to set the fulltrust for the application because my application almost do and will do everythings as ; IO, event log, Env, Registry and etc, So why to become involved in that story.

• Com object - Self registration is the key very simple in .net 2.0 (2005) just change a property and everythings will work, Why to use that / As all you know com object demand registration on local machine registry in order to work (Its a component), Read more on : Deploying COM Components with ClickOnce.

More issues i will update during my research and work on clickonce
