Hello everyone. What is the best way to distribute IronPython applications? I've seen that all the IronPython .dll files need to be in the same folder as the application .exe and the application .dll in order to run. Is it possible to install the IronPython .dll files in one common location for all applications to use? Or do they need to be distributed with every IronPython application? That would seem to be inefficient, especially since the .dlls increase the total size of the application.<br>

This is only the same problem as any .NET application distributing DLLs it depends on. The 'standard' solution is to install assemblies into the GAC. You could do this in your installer.<br>
