Error locating MSVCP80D.DLL MSVCR80D.DLL from Boost libraries boost-*-vc80-mt-gd-1_34_1.dll
My boost dependent applications fail to start in debug mode: error 14001. The dependency walker cannot locate the VC-8.0 runtime dlls referenced by the boost-*-vc80-mt-gd-1_34_1.dll libraries I build on my machine. That is the multi-threaded debug dll runtime: MSVCP80D.DLL, MSVCR80D.DLL. The binary distribution I got from boost.com has the same problem. This is related to the side-by-side configuration rather than making sure that the runtime dlls are in my path. A default win32 console project from VC-8.0 links fine in multi-threaded debug dll runtime mode. Also, a dll compiled in the VC-8.0 IDE referencing boost will resolve the runtime correctly but the associated boost dlls won't. Thus the dependency walker will also report unresolved runtime dlls/ I have re-installed VC-8.0 but without success. I also have VC-7.1 on my machine. Help is greatly appreciated. Best regards, Charles

I've never seen that before :-/ Where are the dll's located - are they in your path? There's nothing special about the Boost dll's and the way they are built, so this is a general Visual Studio issue rather than a Boost one. Stumped I'm afraid :-( John.

Charles - are the VC++ runtime DLLs installed in the SxS area in your Windows directory? If not, then (IIRC) each EXE *and* DLL that links to them needs its own manifest to say where they expect to get the runtime DLLs from. Also, I always find FileMon (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896642.aspx) useful to see which directories the Windows loader is looking in to find DLLs when I have issues like this.
