WinMerge and 7Zip - need DLL

R

RichardOnRails

Hi,

I got both WinMerge and 7-Zip a while ago (independently). I just now
tried to use WinMerge and it reported that I needed a DLL for 7-Zip:

7-Zip version installed: 4.65; DLL missing: Merge7z465U.dll
7-Zip version recommend: 4.57; DLL missing: Merge7z457U.dll

I Googled the 'Net and couldn't find either DLL. Any idea how I can
find either of them, preferably the one needed for my installed
version of 7-Zip.

Thanks in Advance,
Richard

P.S.:
I forgot to mention that I tried the Plugin Download link
http://sourceforge.net/projects/winmerge/files/3. 7-Zip plugin/
provided by WinMerger which listed a bunch of &-Zip DLLs, but I
couldn't find any version name like the two I allegedly require.

Did I miss something on this list?

Thanks again in Advance,
Richard

PPS:

I just realized that WinMerge difference between two files is working
fine, which is my immediate concern. Apparently the missing DLL
negatively impacts some WinMerge features, but not all.

Renaming the files for 457 seems to work with 4.65 Merge7z457U.dll to
Merge7z465U.dll

===================

You might want to look at this too, there's a 457 in the filename anyway:

Thanks, Mike. I'm filing this until I complete my current programming
task using WinMerge, which I belatedly discovered works without fixing
the 7-zip DLL.

Best wishes,
Richard
