Windows Binary: Runtime dependency MSVCP120.dll missing #48

Closed dannyedel closed 9 years ago

dannyedel commented 9 years ago

@projekter, I tried to run your binary on a Windows 7 system, and it gives an error message about a missing MSVCP120.dll. I don't know where to get it from, but the MSVC... prefix makes me think its from Visual C++.

Please update install instructions on where to get it from, or include it in the zip (if you're allowed to do that).

system-error

@dannyedel, I have updated the archive. Originally, I checked with Process Explorer which dependencies were loaded. These DLLs were not shown. I have now started the application in a plain VM and added the two missing DLLs. They are part of the Visual Studio Redistributable list, so inclusion is allowed.

dannyedel commented 9 years ago

Wonderful, thank you very much! Its also nice that you were allowed to include them.

As soon as I'm at the windows 7 machine again (probably around 17h CEST) I will try the package and post results (hopefully closing ticket).

I have tested again and I can confirm it works now. The only thing a bit confusing is that while the file-chooser is running, there's an additional blank console window named dspdfviewer.exe (which doesn't matter much, since as soon as I load a pdf I don't see it anyway, and it disappears when closing dspdfviewer.)

It just seems a bit odd, so if you know how to quickly turn it off, please send a pull request and enclose it in #ifdef _WIN32, such as

#ifdef _WIN32
// do stuff to hide black window on windows
#endif
// shared-OS code

Anyway, it works and it almost runs as fast as on linux. So this issue's resolved :+1:

Hi, Can't run the binary in Windows 10 because of a bad allocation error. Anyone has it working on Windows 10? Any suggestion on how to get it working?

Thanks!

@raissel thank you for reporting the problem. But can I please ask you to report this as a new issue? It doesn't seem to mention the MSCVP120.dll, so I don't see why we should reopen this one.

ghost commented 8 years ago

Done, thanks for your fast reply.

Please let me know if any solution comes out. I have an important presentation by tomorrow and I can't manage to get the notes in one screen and the presentation in the beamer.

best regards
