Waht dll to copy to clients?

[Anonymous]

Hello,

i made my first api, but in the compile folder there are many dlls. In particular 2 that i did not add myself: autodesk.inventor.interop.dll and stdole.dll

Am I right in the asusmption that those two files will be present on every client computer, so all i need to copy over is the addin dll and the .addin file?

Thanks!

1) Build Project;

 2) Copy add-in *.dll file to one of following locations:
  
  Inventor <InstallPath>\bin\ folder

 3) Copy.addin file to one of following locations:
  a) Inventor Version Dependent
  Windows :
   C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Autodesk\Inventor ####\Addins\
  Windows:
   C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Inventor ####\Addins\

  b) Inventor Version Independent
  Windows:
   C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Autodesk\Inventor Addins\
  Windows:
   C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Inventor Addins\

  c) Per User Override
  Windows:
   C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Autodesk\Inventor ####\Addins\
  Windows7/Vista:
   C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\Inventor ####\Addins\

 4) Startup Inventor, the AddIn should be loaded
