|

Do I understand that the only file needed for deployment of a simple builder
6 application is the EXE file if RTL is not selected? My ap just reads a
binary file, formats the data, and writes a text file.
Thanks

If your program uses any packages or DLL's which fail to have a static
library equivalent then you will have to install them along with your EXE
onto any machine which does not have them.
Other than those items, the only DLL's it depends upon should be the ones
supplied by Windows.
If you would like to check this, open a console window, move to the
directory where the EXE is found and give this command.
tdump -em. filename.exe
(do not overlook the period at the end of -em. )
What will be shown will be something like this:
--------------------------------
C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorMy DocumentsProjectsdeltemp
| Quote: | tdump -em. deltemp
Turbo Dump Version 5.0.16.12 Copyright (c) 1988, 2000 Inprise Corporation |
Display of File DELTEMP.EXE
IMPORT: WININET.DLL
IMPORT: KERNEL32.DLL
IMPORT: USER32.DLL
C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorMy DocumentsProjectsdeltemp
| Quote: |
-------------------------------- |
And in this case, WinInet.DLL, Kernel32.DLL and User32.DLL are all items
that Windows supplies. The compiler's runtime library DLL is CC3260.DLL.

I get:
rtl60.bpl
vcl60.bpl
VERSION.DLL
SHELL.DLL
KERNEL32.DLL
USER32.DLL
I assume that the first two DLLs are supplied by Windows and that I only
have to include the first two BPLs, is that correct?
Thanks! I'm trying to use InstallShield Express for the first time
(although it's overkill for this application) and it suggested about a dozen
files....

I think rtl60.bpl and vcl60.bpl are because Build with Runtime Packages is
selected. Try doing another build with that disabled.
Project|Options|Packages tab
uncheck Build with runtime packages
Version, shell, kernel32 and user32 are all supplied by Windows.

There is also the question as to what DLL's InstallShield Express might
need, although they probably just have to be on the CD or disk.

Ah Ha, I missed that, I just had linker use runtime dynamic lib turned off.
