no touch deployment

[Robert May]

I have an application that processes text strings using information in a
file. I want to deploy this app using no-touch deployment. The config
files and everything else are deployed just fine, but the CGT file (compiled
Grammar Table) is not, and the program crashes when it attempts to read this
file.

Is there any way to have this file loaded as needed?

With no touch deployment, how do you copy files that aren't assemblies down
to the users machine automatically? Is this even possible, or are you stuck
using resources from a remote location?

Thoughts?

no touch works with DLLs.
If your data is included in the DLL it will work.
Otherwise you need to fetch it remotely.

Dino,

Does no-touch deployment also work with non .Net DLLs and ActiveX
components, or just .Net items?
