I'm not clear about which package to install on a development host,
and which to install on a customer's host.

1. Here's what I thought I understood:

- Setups: Includes design-time component for VS 2005, and Visual C++
2005 SP1 runtime
- Precompiled Binaries:  The Visual C++ 2012 RTM runtime is not
included
- Precompiled Statically-Linked: The Visual C++ 2005 SP1 runtime for
x86 is statically linked

Setups should only be installed on developer's host, and only if we
actually need the design-time components.
The Precompiled binaries should be  installed on the customer's host
through xcopy.
Use the static packages if the customer doesn't have admin rights to
install the VC++ runtime

Each package is available in two versions:
- bundle = "mixed-mode assembly + all the binaries"; mixed-mode
assembly only necessary when the binary assembly must be installed in
the GAC
- no-bundle = "all the binaries"

2. And here are the questions:
- What does the design-time component offer?

- What applications rely on the binary assembly in the GAC, and hence,
require installing the bundle packages?

3. Am I correct in understanding that the "no-bundle Precompiled
binaries" are usually the right choice, provided the customer can
install the VC++ runtime?

Thank you.
