what do I need to make run an xll ?

Adjriou Belak
Hi,
 
In my laptop , the xll works fine because I have Visual C++, but in my desk, I just have Excel and
and when I open the xll, i Have a message error.
What  libraries do I need to make it run without Visual C++ ?
 
regards
thanks for your help.

In the simplest case an xll has no external dependencies - you start
Excel, load the xll, and away you go.

If your xll stops working when you install it on a non-development
machine, I'd suspect one of two problems
1) you've compiled the xll in such a way as to create a run-time
dependency.  For example, you linked the xll to some lib such that the
xll depends on the corresponding dll at runtime
2) There's some other difference between your dev box and the box you
installed to - for example different versions of Excel - xlls can be
flaky about different versions of Excel and not all of the differences
are documented, debugging is the only way.

Eric

We've come across this problem with xlls built under visual C++ .net . There are a couple of dlls that the xll requires and returns
a library not recognized error if you don't have them.
 
the relevant ones may be mscvp70.dll
mscvi70.dll
msvcr70.dll

Mark

I have had this kind of problems in a lot of situations, and then I found a
tool that just shows you all the dependencies of a dll so that you quickly
find out what you're missing.

http://www.dependencywalker.com/

It's free and it works.  :-)

My guess is that you have a run-time dependency on a version of the C or C++
runtime library which versions are different on the two machines.
But this is just speculation: start the dependency walker and you'll know
exactly.. :-)
