Compatibility issues

Hi all,

    need a little help here :)

    this week I've reported of missing dll s from some customers.

    shlwapi.dll
    msvc60.dll

    That was in Win95 and Win98

    How do you make your installer to ensure this to be prevented. I mean
can you include the missing dlls or what?

    I'm deploying with DSTPRO 5.0 and I need that the exes run in
Win95/98/98se/Me/XP/2k.

    The deployment works fine in most of the customers but about 10% have
this missing message.

regards,

Seb

I will post a semi-helpful response, perhaps someone else can post a
fully-helpful response. ;)

There is information about D4 file requirements at the link bellow, and how
to obtain them.  Perhaps this still applies to D5.

I _think_ most deployment DLL issues can be resolved by making at least IE 4
(or maybe 5) a requirement.  Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

Christopher,

    I previously saw the page you mention. I've looked again, by the way it
has a broken link to the

http://www.object-arts.com/Downloads/3.0/DolphinMSVCRTLibs.zip

    I don't know if those libraries could bring some language dependencies,
I've to make a test on some system.

    Anyway, I guess those requeriments are valid for DST5 too.

    When I make the installer of deployed applications, can I distribute
those libraries?

    Best regards,

Seb
