Hi Artem,
/MT flag links the MSVC***.dll statically.
This is the Makefile (open) for utility (in closed) we added Registry manipulation which needs the MSVC*** dll to be present on the host machine, as this dll may not be present, hence the need to do the static linking.
Thanks,
Ragini.

Hi, Ragini, Pete,

as far as I understand, the fix is to replace /MDd with /MT, so we don't link to debug version of MS runtime, correct? Could you provide more details, why you link to the static version of the runtime (/MT), instead of dynamic one (/MD)? The only place in JDK where we use that is java/javaw launcher, all other libs are linked with /MD.

Thanks,

Artem
