MFC FOUNDATION CLASSES

[haktekvc]

HI I'M TRYING TO MAKE AN MFC APP WITHOUT NEEDING THE DEPENDANCIES (MFC42.DLL) I'VE TRIED GOING INTO THE MENU IN THE SETTINGS BUT IT ONLY SHOW 'USE MFC IN A SHARED DLL' OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

COULD YOU PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.
THANX

you can choose what type of build you want. either a DLL or a statically linked file. DLL is only good for programs that have the DLL's used by MFC installed on the computer. i.e. MFC42.DLL, MFCD40.DLL, etc. But if you choose statically linked file, it will build the .exe file with all the necessary DLL files encoded into your file. But the catch is that it can get big. depending on your project, the statically linked exe file can get from 3 to 4 MB if the exe itself is only about 1 MB.
