RealDWG 2013 MS runtime dependencies

[Anonymous]

Hi!

Working on a installer for a web app in VS2010 that uses RealDWG 2013. The RealDWG part of the documentation made me a bit confused as it says that it has dependencies on the 2008 version of the MFC and C++ Runtime, see attachment.

Does RealDWG depend on both the 2008 and 2010 versions of the MFC and C++ Runtime? If so could not this create problems(memory leaks, crashes etc) if different components uses different versions?

Thanks,

Niclas

IMHO it is a typo in documentation. RealDWG 2013 depend on only VS 2010 SP1.

Played around a bit with this and it actually seem that RealDWG has a dependancy to VC++ 2008 runtimes!?

Using a clean win7x64 test env. (with the .NET framework 4.0 and VC++ 2010 64 redisributable installed) I ran a  web app test installer that contained should deploy a simple webservice using RealDWG. Almost all RealDWG components were included (except the XXXPolygonXXX merge modules as one or more of them contained the same files so I removed them all).

When trying to browse the webapp the following error message displays:

Could not load file or assembly 'acdbmgd.dll' or one of its dependencies. The specified module could not be found.

The Event viewer gives the following information:
Activation context generation failed for "c:\inetpub\wwwroot\websetuptest\ACDB19.DLL". Dependent Assembly Microsoft.VC90.OpenMP,processorArchitecture="amd64",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type="win32",version="9.0.21022.8" could not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.

This is confirmed by Dependency walker (acdbmgd.dll):

Error: The Side-by-Side configuration information for "c:\inetpub\wwwroot\websetuptest\ACDB19.DLL" contains errors. The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail (14001).
Warning: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in a delay-load dependent module.

I think the warning is irrelevant (IEFRAME.DLL is marked red with an hour-glass)

And also by looking at a sxstrace log:

I cannot see that I would get this error message if there really was no dependancy in RealDWG 2013(at least the ACDB19.DLL) to the 2008 runtimes.

I did not notice this on my development environment, where my app runs fine, as I have both the 2008 and 2010 runtimes installed. Next step is probably to check if it would be possible/better to create a realDWG 2013 host app using VS2008, but then there might be other parts of RealDWG that actually uses VC2010...
