We recently ran into something very similar... We build our .net assemblies MSIL, but a 3rd party assembly (dtSearch) was built platform-specific because it had a dependency on an unmanaged dll.
We didn't find any MSVCR71 for x64, but the vendor did supply an x64 build of their code (both .net and unmanaged). Their unmanaged dll didn't depend on msvcr71 (though I forget which rev the x64 build was on). Same thing with the Oracle drivers (and the .Net wrapper).

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Windows 7 x64: Windows application x64 is looking for MSVCR71.dll Forget the build, the issue is the binary that needs msvcr71.dll. As far as I know, there is no native x64 version of the Microsoft VS 2003 C++ runtime support library msvcr71.dll. If someone has built a native x64 binary that requires a native x64 msvcr71.dll then I have no idea what you can do. Because this seems to be a situation that a reasonable person would not get into, I'm suggesting that you verify that it really is a native x64 binary, because people can get very loose in their descriptions, and it's still extremely common to run x86 code on 64-bit systems.

This x64 binary is from the open source community. Thereby I must merge msvcr71.dll with install upon a Windows 7 x64, or a getting "missing" error dialog at runtime. ----- Thanks Jeff in Seattle -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Windows-7-x64-Windows-application-x64-is-looking-for-MSVCR71-dll-tp4970053p4970279.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users *** Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail, including any associated or attached files, is intended solely for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
