Re: Missing libraries

Hi Curt,

I don't know the tool you are referring to. Will have to investigate it. Is
it freely downloadable somewhere?

Anyway, I found some reference on the Internet and they told me to check the
Event Viewer for SideBySide errors. I did find three entries that are
generated by my app every time the exception is raised. Here is the content
of those entries:

Generate Activation Context failed for D:\CHP\exe\ATMSDataClient.dll.
Reference error message: The referenced assembly is not installed on your
system.

Resolve Partial Assembly failed for Microsoft.VC80.DebugCRT. Reference error
message: The referenced assembly is not installed on your system.

Dependent Assembly Microsoft.VC80.DebugCRT could not be found and Last Error
was The referenced assembly is not installed on your system.

So it's clear to me now that the Microsoft.VC80.DebugCRT is missing. What is
not clear is why is my application even looking for that since both the
application and the library are generated in their Release configuration.
Ultimately, I can add this missing assembly, but I will try first to figure
out how to get away by not using it.

Regards,
Eddie

Have you tried running the Fusion log viewer (fuslogvw) to chase this down?
The CLR loader (aka Fusion) won't automatically load dependent assemblies
just because they're in the same directory.  Is it possible that -- in your
development environment -- the dependent assemblies are either in your path
or in the GAC?
