VS 2008 my project wont run in other computers

Question

i am new in VSc++ and im using VS 2008

i made a dll with winform or GUI it can run/load in my computer but it dosnt do the same in other computers..the gui wont show

i already installed so many version of vcredist_x86 but im still stuck with this problem

could you please help me how to make it run in other computers..thank you

Answer 1

Since you are talking about Winform, is the correct .NET version installed on the other computers? VC2008 is able to create applications that need at least .NET 3.5

Answer 2

will there should be an error msg if the correct .net version is not installed?...but there nothing like that,,the gui simple not showing up

i will still try your advise sir..thank you

Answer 3

Please check whether the executable is running in taskmanager. I hope you put the dll and executable same folder and you are not getting any dll missing message.  Use dependency walker and check whether any dlls are missing.

You should get an error message, in both cases if you use dynalically linked native code or managed code (.NET ) if the .NET Framework is missing or the VC redistributable is missing.

ok i somehow made it working in other pc by installing the same compiler that im using, VS2008

so whats missing in other pc, to intall it without installing VS2008 ?

@Renjith

the WinForm is inside the dll..i mean the WinForm will show up if the dll is attach to a process

The plausible explanation is that you installed wrong redistributables (or somehow messed things up during the installations).

Answer 8

i dont know about this dependency walker...i open my dll using this and gives me error and warnings:

Error: At least one required implicit or forwarded dependency was not found.
Warning: At least one delay-load dependency module was not found.
Warning: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in a delay-load dependent module.

what to do?

thank you for the help

Answer 9

See section "How to Interpret Warnings and Errors in Dependency Walker" in Help.

Answer 10

Error: At least one required implicit or forwarded dependency was not found.

This error means, Suppose dll A depends on dll B. You application is loaded dll A and dll B is missing.
