.net 4.6.2

[pedro01]

Hi

I've upgraded my app from .NET 4.5 to 4.6.2

I currently have the .NET 4.5 detection script in my installer but I'm struggling to understand how that could be adapted to 4.6.2.

Any advice on that?

Let me know

Pete

Here's a function we use:

function VerifyDotNetVersion(DotNetKey, MinimumDotNetVersionNumber, MinimumDotNetVersionName)
 
    local DotNetVersionFound = false;
    if (Registry.DoesKeyExist(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, DotNetKey)) then
    
        local DotNetVersion = Registry.GetValue(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, DotNetKey, "Release", true);
    
        if DotNetVersion >= MinimumDotNetVersionNumber then
            DotNetVersionFound = true;
        end
    end
 
    if not DotNetVersionFound then
        Dialog.Message(SessionVar.Expand("%ProductName%").." Setup",
            "Installation of the Microsoft .NET Framework " .. MinimumDotNetVersionName ..
            SessionVar.Expand(" or above is a prerequisite to run the %ProductName%. It is not included with this installation.  It will need to be downloaded from Microsoft's website and installed on the workstation before continuing.\r\n\r\nPlease contact eFreedom Annual Statement Support at %SupportPhone% for additional information and further instructions.\r\n\r\nClick OK to exit this installation."),
            MB_OK, MB_ICONSTOP);        
        Application.Exit(3);        
    end;
 
end

Then we call it from OnStartup with (use the correct version number for the .NET version you are checking for)

-- .NET 4 Reg Key
local DotNetKey = "SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\NET Framework Setup\\NDP\\v4\\Full";
-- .NET 4.5.2 Build Number
local MinimumDotNetVersion = "461308";
local MinimumDotNetVersionName = "v4.7.1";

VerifyDotNetVersion(DotNetKey, MinimumDotNetVersion, MinimumDotNetVersionName);

Hope that helps.
