I managed to create bootstrapper for my project that includes .net framework 3.5SP1 with this code:
<ItemGroup>
<BootstrapperFile Include="Microsoft.Net.Framework.3.5.SP1">
<Visible>False</Visible>
<ProductName>.NET Framework 3.5.SP1</ProductName>
<Install>true</Install>
</BootstrapperFile>
</ItemGroup>
<Target Name="Bootstrapper">
<GenerateBootstrapper
ApplicationFile="SeppelSetup.msi"
ApplicationName="Seppel 1.0"
BootstrapperItems="@(BootstrapperFile)"
OutputPath=".\bin\Debug"
ComponentsLocation="Relative"
Culture="en"
Path="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper"
/>
</Target>
The problem is that output directory has over 200Mb, wich is much more than I can afford (I want to put installer online for download). Is there a way that allow me to download framework from microsoft's site rather than include all files in installation package?
From the Bootstrapper element Remove your ComponentsLocation="Relative" attribute and add following
ComponentsLocation="Homesite"
CopyComponents="true"
