ClickOnce Deployment for a C++/CLI Project using Visual Studio 2008

How do I publish a C++/CLI Windows Forms project for ClickOnce deployment? The properties window for C++/CLI projects does not include a "Publish" tab (like in the C# projects).

You cannot ClickOnce deploy an exe written in unmanaged code. The standard approach is to create a managed code stub exe that would launch your actual application.

You can follow the guidelines for manually deploying a ClickOnce application on MSDN.

This relies on the Windows Software Development Kit and command line tools instead of Visual Studio to do your deployment.

Just another note with this - if you can, I'd recommend trying to migrate to /clr:pure if possible. If you're working with native code, this won't work, but if it's a pure windows forms app, it will make the deployment scenario simpler, since you'll have fewer issues in ClickOnce with CAS requirements.
