NetPing

NetPing is a simple utility to ping any given address and show the output in a nice graph.

It's a great way to monitor a connection or host and gives feedback in an intuitive user interface.

Development

This section is focussed on development of NetPing, in case you want to build your own version(s).

Environment

This application was written using Visual Studio 2015 and .NET Framework 4.5.2 on Windows 10 1511.
It will most likely build fine on different configurations, but might require some modifications.

Updating the version number

The version number is stored in two locations:

  • In the projects assembly info file: 'NetPing\Properties\AssemblyInfo.cs'
  • In the projects C# project file: 'NetPing\NetPing.csproj'
  • In the installer setup.iss file (only used for the installer): 'Installer\setup.iss'

Building the installer

Note: This installer uses 3rd party components from innodependencyinstaller to automatically download and install the correct .NET framework if required. See 'Installer\innodependencyinstaller LICENSE.md' for the license of innodependencyinstaller.

NetPing uses the Inno Setup Compiler to generate an executable installer.
The installer project files are located in the 'Installer'-folder.

The scripts are based on Inno Setup 5.5.9 but will probably work with any recent version.

To build the installer:

  • Make sure the project is compiled and there is a working executable named 'NetPing.exe' in the 'NetPing\bin\Release'-folder
  • Open 'Installer\setup.iss' in the Inno Setup Compiler
  • Hit Build -> Compile (Ctrl+F9)
  • Done, the installer should be in the 'Installer\bin'-folder
