MFC71.dll not found

[Eduardo Pavinato Klein]

Hi all.

I've installed my application in a production machine and, to my surprise,
I've received a popup error message like 'MFC71.dll not found' and that I
needed to reinstall my application.

It seems that this library is not part of the .NET Framework. So why does
the application need it?

Any idea of the problem?

Thanks,
Eduardo Klein

Ok, I've found the problem.

It was in an unmanaged dll that my app uses. This dll uses MFC as a
dynamic library.

Is there a way to identify the set of libraries I need to install with
my application?

Thanks,
Eduardo.

Hi

What is your application written by?
Usually the pure managed code deployment, we can create a setup project on
vs.net and it will help us to calculate the necessary library.
While for the unmanaged one, because some programmer will load some library
dynamically, so it is hard to track the needed library, it is the
programmer's responsibility to tell what is needed for the application.

Also we have specifed setup queue for dotnet setup issue.
