VC++ Package Deployment

[Vu Nguyen]

Hi All! under MS Visual Studio, we have a tool call Package Deployment Wizard for Visual Basic. This tool helps make a setup package for an EXE file of VB. It attaches all the dll files to the VB exe file basically. Do we have anything like that for VC++? I ask this because one of my applications does not run under NT4.0 SP6 when I compile it using "use MFC in a shared dll". The file needed is MFC42.dll; Thanks Vu vucsuf

There is InstallShield for this. I vote pro drink :beer:

VC++ 7 has a built-in setup feature, that should be enough for most deployment needs. // Fazlul

Hi! I use install shield to make setup disk. However, the installed package does not fix the problem. The OS still complains about the MFC42.dll Do I miss anything? Thanks Vu vucsuf
