Chris,
Just for stupidity's sake, make sure you have changed that setting for
the correct build. I spent almost an hour one morning wondering why
something wasn't linking the way I expected, only to find that I had
made the change in the release settings and was trying to use the debug
build! :-) Boy did I feel stupid when I found that one! Serves me right
for doing a batch build each time and thinking that if the file modified
time was correct I must be using the right file!
Regards,
Richard
P.S. I just looked at the configuration for the custom action we have.
(Visual Studio 2005 - your mileage may vary.) We are apparently using
the "Use Standard Windows Libraries" option instead of the static /
dynamic MFC choices. Dependency walker shows just three direct
dependencies - MSI.dll, USER32.dll and KERNEL32.dll.
P.P.S. I also thought it is worth mentioning that for the purpose of
this exercise you are probably only interested in direct dependencies.
It is perfectly possible that Microsoft may decide to make some of their
libraries dependent on msvcr80.dll, but if you are not using the runtime
directly its use by other parts of the system should be transparent to
your code.

Thanks for the suggestion. It didn't seem to have any effect though.
The size of the dll (and all the other files in the build directory)
stayed the same, and the msvcr80.dll dependency still exists.
