Runtime libraries to distribute

[wriedmann]

Hi,
just a question: since there are two different macrocompilers in X# now: what is the default one that is used in the RDDs and in the code itself?
Do I need to redistribute both of them?
Wolfgang
P.S. the file XSharp.VFP.dll is both missing in the file Redist.txt and in the folder Redist (there are only the XML and the PDB file).

Wolfgang,

For 'normal' backward compatibility use you should use just the XSharp.Macrocompiler.
I will update the installer to make sure that the VFP DLL is added as well as update the redist.txt file.

Hi Wolfgang,

It's the "fast" macro compiler that it is being automatically used, which is file XSharp.MacroCompiler.dll. The "full" (but much slower) macro compiler is included in XSharp.MacroCompiler.Full.dll, you do not need to distribute this one.

Hi Robert, hi Chris,
thank you very much for your answer!

Hi Wolfgang,

i made a test:

Code: Select all

 VAR oType := GetMacroCompiler() 
 ? oType:Assembly:Fullname
 ? oType:Assembly:Location 
 

and the results are:

XSharp.MacroCompiler, Version=2.0.3.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=ed555a0467764586
C:WindowsMicrosoft.NetassemblyGAC_MSILXSharp.MacroCompilerv4.0_2.0.3.0__ed555a0467764586XSharp.MacroCompiler.dll
