ClickOnce deployment with Crystal Reports prerequisite -

I have a .NET Winforms app (built in VS2005) which I deploy to use ClickOnce. I have user crystal report viewer control to view reports on one of the forms, but to use it in the app, I have to include Crystal Reports XI Release 2 precrack, which they install before app installs. It originally installs underwater versions of crystals on the users machine.

It publishes this way, but it is difficult to wait for the user to install the crystal and it is a big problem for me because publishing the app with a precaution takes a long time because It has to upload a large preq on the server.

Since publication takes so long and new installations are not super common, usually when I publish changes and instead publish it with just a prerequisite, then a new installation Necessary.

If you have used ClickOn to publish an app with crystal reports, then how is it published or an easy / better way

Instead of incorporating and installing crystal report preqr, CR DLL is needed / what is the way to get involved in GAC or there is a way that I can copy the OneClick deployment to the file every time I can figure. If I can configure the clickon deployment then I do not need to include the prefix and instead just install it in a standard location, which will be helpful.

Hope this was somewhat obvious and someone could help you. Thank you

You can specify when you deploy a clickon app with something else Where are downloaded from anything else, local or vendor (such as Microsoft) if you specify the seller, then it will not include prerequisite binary in your deployment package.

If the crystal has not specified a remote location, then you can always complete your own pre-requisite using the Bootstrap Manifest Generator. You will then upload Crystal Binaries to your Deployment Server at one place, using your new binary repository as a vendor's site, make your custom prerequisite, by adding custom prerequisites to your clickous app, and download it from the vendor's site. Please.

I believe that VS In 2010, you have the third option for click on anything else, where you can target a specific site to remove the need for your custom condition.
