visual studio .net setup:

Hello Everyone,

I have a Windows Form application and in the same .sln I have a setup
program to install it. Everything is fine. I was wondering if it is possible
to run ngen.exe on my binaries after successful install?

BTW: Just for your information, my programs run considerably faster after
using ngen on them.

Thanks.

Hello,

I think the following walkthrough will help you. It details how to create
a custom action on your deployment. See
