MSVC8 Runtime library registration

Thyfate · 6th September 2006, 21:23

Hello!

I am considering using NSIS as an installer for a program of mine but one information I can not find is how to install MSVC8 runtime libraries.

Visual studio help reads about shared side-by-side or private assemblies and stuff like that, which I am not very versed into...

Is there a "better way" to install these libraries or just copying them to the program folder is the way you do it ? I could not find any example.

Thanks in advance,

Charles

As far as I know, just copying them to the application directory should work and is also the suggested method. MSDN should have the full story on this.
