Hello,

i wrote a c++ console application for a person but i need to send him an application for working independent of Visual Studio. How can i do this?

Thanks in advance

As you build the project an exe file will be automatically created. look for it and send it...

You should make sure you send the release build.

You might also want to statically link to the CRT, as this will avoid CRT versioning issues. Look at the project properties "Configuration Properties", "C/C++", "Code Generation" and check "Runtime Library" setting is "Multi-threaded (/MT)"
