I've been using a lot of new .NET 3.5 features in the work that I've been doing, lately. The application that I'm building is intended for distribution among consumers who will probably not have the latest version (or perhaps any version) of the .NET framework on their machines. I went to go download the .NET 3.5 redistributable package ...
I'm working on a setup which wants to include the Microsoft.Web.Services3 (WSE 3.0) DLL. However, I typically do not like including Microsoft DLL's in our installs except by way of Microsoft's redistributables. There is both a developer and a redist install package available from Microsoft. So, as a best practice, should I include the s...
Is there a redistributable .Net 3.5 installation package that is a silent installer? Or alternatively, is there a switch that can be passed to the main redistributable .Net 3.5 installer to make it silent? ...
My ClickOnce application uses a third party tool that requires the Visual C++ 2005 redistributable. The third party tool will not work if only the VC++ 2008 redistributable is installed. However, in Visual Studio 2008, the ClickOnce prerequisites do not allow a version to be specified for the VC++ redistributable; it will add a VC++ 2008...
Is there a Registry setting that I can look for to determine whether or not the Visual C++ redistributable is installed, whether standalone or as part of Visual Studio 2008? I know that I could launch the VC++ 2008 redistributable installer and let it handle the detection, but it would look cleaner if I can check for it and not bother la...
Am I allowed to redistribute only parts of the DirectX package? (e.g. only the DirectDraw DLLs, without Show/3D/etc.) ...
If you have a WPF control library which you wanted to license to developers, how do enforce license restrictions such that the library could be used and distributed in their own applications and yet prevent the end-users from reusing that .dll? I'm approaching this from a strict business perspective, so I'm trying to find a solution tha...
I have written a game that uses GLUT, OpenGL and FMOD. The problem is that the binary won't run, unless Visual Studio 2008 is installed on the computer. Why is this? ...
Hi Guys, We are currently building an application which needs to compile a C# code. Can we redistribute the CS.exe in our package. I thought that it comes with the .Net framework installation but from looking in Microsoft Web site i see that there is a difference between .Net framework and the .Net SDK What are my options? Thanks, Adi ...
Got a problem with ADOMD.NET 8.0, SQL2008 and our app. It isn't giving us the right metadata. I can't find anywhere to download the ADOMD.NET 9.0 redistributable. Only way I can get it is by installing 2008 and grabbing the DLL. Any clues? ...
I'm generating code dynamically, currently using String.Format and embedding placeholders - but reformatting the C# code for use as a template is a pain, and I think using a T4 template would be better. However, the code generation will be happening on a running system, so I need to know that I can safely and legally redistribute the Mi...
I have a question very similar to this one but the answer does not work for me. Software I am maintaining the setup for depends on VC++ 2008 (SP1, precisely), thus I need to find a solution to install VCRedist if not yet installed. I understand the correct way would be to build msi with merge modules, but it's not on my hands. The answ...
Realbasic allows you to include e.g an MS Flexgrid control in your Realbasic project and use it as though it were a native control. Does the end user need to have this control installed already and if not and realbasic includes it in the build are there licensing issues? I have vb6 and can distribute this control legally with a vb6 appli...
i'm trying to find one of the latest versions of GDIPlus. The redistributable version i'm using from 2001 still contains the security vulnerabilities that wouldn't be discovered for another 5 years. gdiplus.dll File version: 5.1.3097.0 Date modified: 8/23/2001 4:25 PM The only download i can find on Microsoft is not digitally signed....
Sorry if this isnt suited to this site, I wasnt really sure about it. Basically I have a 3rd-party application which is free to use but which says its not redistributable which I was hoping our group could use but I am unclear if making it available on a purely internal network share for the group would violate this or not? Is something...
I have a Flash component that's just a library of compiled code with some exposed API calls. Normally we distribute this as a SWC or MXP, and it works just fine. Recently I had a client express interest in using my component, but they do all their development in MTASC only. MTASC doesn't support SWC files, so ss there a good way to send ...

I have an old dll that uses the Microsoft Visual C++ 2003 (7.1) run time package. Unfortunately I don't have that DLL around anymore. Short of reinstalling VS2003, is there another way to get the run time redistributable dll? ...
Hello! It might be a stupid question, but all of my tries to google this failed. The question is: How can you develop windows applications that don't need a redistributable pre-installed? I want to create applications that run also under older versions of Windows which don't have the .NET Framework or something similar included. Thank ...
