Win / Forms：如何在Advanced Installer中包括依赖项（DLLS）

Question

I am total beginner in wondows forms & c#, so please bear with me.

I am integrating Chromium Embeded (CEF) into the project for embedded browsers.

This is running all fine and dandy in Visual Studio, However when I build the App using my Advanced Installer trial it is not including (I believe) the .dll files which I imported into Visual Studio and it is also missing the .dll files which I places in my Bin folder.

I have been working along tutorials like this to include CEF : http://joelverhagen.com/blog/2013/12/headless-chromium-in-c-with-cefglue/

This result when I run the .msi is the "The application has stopped working" message and a error message

Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: HotSpot Pro.exe Application Version: 1.0.0.0 Application Timestamp: 5385b6bc Fault Module Name: libcef.DLL Fault Module Version: 3.1650.1522.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 52901557 Exception Code: 4000001f Exception Offset: 00117430 OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1 Locale ID: 2057 Additional Information 1: fe58 Additional Information 2: fe5878624072c940bf7f09e916e37fe3 Additional Information 3: 5e84 Additional Information 4: 5e842ab4bb98e8958a26054cfcd97bd4

Does anyone know how to include these files in the .msi installer? Or is something else going terribly wrong?

Thanks,

I assume you are using the full GUI version Advanced Installer, not the VS extension? If you are using the full version of your application, just go to Files and Folders, there you can either drag and drop the files missing, if you know which does are, or right click on the main application executable/DLLs and from the context menu select "Add Dependencies".

This option should help you adding the project the dependencies required.
