Package a installer for my application

I want to package my application to installer. I use .NET Framework 3.5 & Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate for my application. I can attach .NET Framework & VS J# 2.0 into my package. When running installer, installer can detect the present of .NET Framework & VS J#. If they are not existing, installer ask the user to install them before.开发者_JS百科

Please help me the way to deploy this installer. I can use availaible features in Visual Studio 2010 or must using a third-party application.

Thanks.

Here is a thread which may help you add your prerequisites:

If this doesn't help, can you please give us more details about the problem?

If you don't want to use the Visual Studio Installer, you could try InstallJammer and see this thread for information regarding checking for .NET availability.

You can use BitRock InstallBuilder to package your application. It has action to detect .NET described here: http://installbuilder.bitrock.com/docs/installbuilder-7.0.3-userguide.html#autodetectDotNetFramework
