what is the relation between stlport.5.2.dll and Visual C++?? Do I need stlport for my program to run?

I'm trying to write a simple hello world program in visual c++ using visual studio 2010 prof. Im getting the following error after successful build.

System Error:
Application couldn't start because stlport.5.2.dll is missing

When I searched about it it is an open source project. So what is the link between these two? The only thing I changed from default VS installation is importing settings from other machine which is main build machine for our company.

Here is what I did: 1. Create an empty project. 2. Added a source file Main.cpp with hello world line. 3. F7 4. Ctrl+F5

Now I'm getting above error

Solution

  • try to run devend.exe /ResetAddin

    there shouldn't be any problem.

    make sure you create a simple empty project and not some kind of pre-defind project that loads other components by default. (win32 console application)

    Also - search you project's external dependencies.. remove any h file that is there...
