How to make a c++ file executable on visual C++
Hey Guys, i recently started C++ programming on Visual C++. i made a simple Web Browser,and i would like to show it to my friends. How should i make it into an executable file?
1- Choose from the menu up "Release build", or "Release", and then re-build your program.
2- Go to the folder of your project (where you saved your solution/project), and enter the folder called Release, and grab your executable.
3- Make sure that when you copy that file you take all the dependencies with it. Depending on your visual studio version, you have to take 2 DLL files with you. I use Visual Studio 2010, and I need the files msvcp100.dll and msvcr100.dll. You have to find such Visual Studio DLLs in the system directory.
I get from you being a beginner that you didn't link to any special libraries. So this should suffice.
Have fun :-)... I remember those days when I was 15 :P
