I am wondering of compiling mysql into my Setup Deployment File.
Means while I am installing my application, the MySQL will be run silent without the attention of user.

How could I do that? Any guidances for me??
 
I dont know how to do this but running a silent MySql on a computer without the user knowing it is not recommended. Flaws in MySql could be used by potential hackers to exploit the system.

Why would you need that anyway?
 
Yes, thats not my concern anyway.
I am thinking of installing mysql with my Setup file instead of running it seperately.

This could be useful because my clients dont need to install so many things and just need a setup file from me. And so, my setup file will resposible in installing mysql and my program all together.

In other hand, it will be the best if able to install .netframework all together in one setup file.

Hope you guys could help...
 
I believe mysql has a msi installer. msi has several flags, one of them I believe is /silent. MSSQL for example supports this.
