Hi.

I want to use Postgres without installation. The problem is the dependencies on the Visual C dll (msvcrt). As far as I know it would be possible to include a manifest file (only for libpq.dll?) and bundle the dlls from c:\windows\WinSxS into the bin directory of Postgres.
Is this correct? Does anybody have (tested) such a manifest file?

You just need to copy the contents of the redist/x86 under the %VCINSTALLDIR% in your distribution directory, where all dlls/executables are present. VCINSTALLDIR should be similar to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC, depending on your Visual Studio Installation.
This directory contains:
* Microsoft.VCxx.CRT
* Microsoft.VCxx.ATL
..., etc

No need to copy the c:\windows\WinSxS contents.

Hope this should solve your problem.

Regards,
Ashesh
