What now? - x86

I have downloaded http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx familyid=32BC1BEE-A3F9-4C13-9C99-220B62A191EE&displaylang=en. To let me redistribute my applications, but I don't understand how to use this. I installed it and I was given no instructions on how to use it.

Please help,

Wilko

Yes.

That is unless you want to rewrite your entire app from scratch, avoiding the use of CLR whenever you're tempted to use it. For C++ Express this pretty much means you'll have to ditch the entire user interface and resort to the command line only. I don't know about you, but I'd rather ask the user to download/install the .NET framework than lose the ability to create a user interface.

What do you want to know This package install the CRT and all other runtime components for VC 8.0 native programs.

Is that the only way

If you are using .NET you have to install the .NET Framework 2.0.

If you are not using .NET you can linka the CRT statically, than you can execute the exe as it is.

I don't want to have to install anything on their PC, apart from my app

I am using .NET I think.

And what do you mean by install in to their machine

Well i would like to know how to now make it so my program standsalone which was the whole point of getting it.

I thought that it would enable me to make me exe work on a pc without c++ and all of the dlls.

How would I do this

How do I find out for sure if I am using .NET

That screenshot clinches it. Your app is a .NET app, so you're going to have to install the .NET framework on the other person's machine.

In Visual Studio, open your project properties -> Configuration Properties -> General -> Common Language Runtime Support. If it contains "/clr", then you are using .NET.

Alternatively, you can pass your executable through a command prompt (assumes your app is called yourapp.exe):

C:\>type C:\apps\yourapp.exe|findstr MSCOREE

if all you get is "Line 7 too long", then it's not a .NET app. If you get something else, with a long line that contains "MSCOREE" and a bunch of '.'s in it, then it probably is a .NET.

Run it on the other user's machine. Once done, your app should now work on the other person's machine.

Question: are you using .NET/CLR

In the native world you can link the CRT and MFC (if you use it) staticaly. In this case you just copy the exe file.
