Likewise, in the OSG 2.2 win32 binary installer, I didn't want to include MS's redistributable installer. Instead I put a private assembly at %OSG_ROOT%/bin/Microsoft.VC80.CRT. To preserve the plugins in their separate directory, I added that assembly to the PATH (via the OSG_PATH envar) so the plugins could find it. > If someone is interested, I can post the manifest-file I use for > distributing my application.

If you dont include them, then you're depending on some other app having installed them for you. While that's a pretty high probability, there's still a non-zero chance of failure. cheers -- mew -- Mike Weiblen -- Austin Texas USA -- http://mew.cx/ _______________________________________________ osg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
