Vc++6 > .net: msvcrtd.dll not found..
Author
hi there..
i''ve just installed visual c++ .net standard edition, and let it convert my vc++6 project to .net.
everything compiles fine, but when i want to execute my programm, an error is displayed in a message box: msvcrtd.dll cannot be found...
any ideas ?
thanks in advance

msvcrtd.dll is the debug version of the VC++ C runtime libraries. I''d think a normal VC++ installation should put those in your system directory, but in your case that apparently didn''t happen.
Search the VC++ CDs for it.

i have countless msvcrt.dll''s on my pc, but none with "d"
is d the debug version ?
i even recreated the whole project, and it still wants this msvcrtd.dll.
am i using somethin obselte with .net now ?
(there are some new msvcp70.dll''s)
or is my installation maybe corrupt ? (i have bought an original version, standard, and installed it with no errors..)
kind regards

Yes.

As I said earlier, a VC++ installation should place the debug dlls in your system(C:\windows) dir. Since they''re not there, you should search the VC++ CDs for them.
Worst case - do a google search for the .dll. This is a bit risky, though, since the dll you download might have been tampered with.
As for the rest of the thread: WTF?

did you try rebuild all? msvcrtd.dll is the c runtime for vc6. apps build for vs.net should be bound to msvcr70d.dll, which should be installed with .net.

i have found the problem:
it was openIL (devil).
i used the debug version of it, and it seems to depend on this msvcrtd.dll.
i now switched to the runtime version of devIL. (sience the normal msvcrt.dll is found on my pc).
i can execute my programm now, but i don't think its a good solution to mix a vc++6 release dll with vc++7 debug dll's.
and because I am mixing them, i get a "LINK : warning LNK4098: ...".
it looks not like devIL provides a vc++7 compatible version.
so what now ? compile devil in vc++7 myself ? (plase not
)
or just life with this little warning...
is it also bad to mix vc++6 and vc++7 dll's or is it just bad to mix debug/runtime dll's?
thanks in advance
kind regards

just bad to mix debug with release versions.
The debug version allows for dis-asmbely so you can step into the code easier. also debug versions provide alot more overhead with tracing going on in the background.
