I checked and I do have that policy file and but I don’t think the redirect is working.

 

<bindingRedirect oldVersion="8.0.41204.256-8.0.50608.0" newVersion="8.0.50727.42"/>

 

heat still cannot find MSVCR80.DLL.

Yes, it does indeed do this. However, you should have a publisher policy installed on your machine which redirects to 8.0.50727.42. I also have one which redirects to 8.0.50727.163. I'm running Windows XP SP2 with all current patches.

 

Look in %SystemRoot%\WinSXS\Policies\x86_policy.8.0.Microsoft.VC80.CRT_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_x-ww_77c24773 and check that 8.0.50727.42.policy is present, and that the corresponding .cat file is also present. If not, reinstall the vcredist package. You can't just copy MSVCR80.DLL - you must use an installer which correctly installs the Win32 assemblies.

Visual Studio 2005 Released version 8.0.50727.42 creates output DLLs with a manifest that says it depends upon

      <assemblyIdentity type="win32" name="Microsoft.VC80.CRT" version="8.0.50608.0"

 

Thus, heat can never find the MSVCR80.DLL version on the machine.  Is there a way to make heat ignore the version dependency so as to take the latest version which is on the machine?   Alternatively, is there a patch to VS 2005 to create correct manifest that indicates the correct version of VC80.CRT that it is using instead of a beta 2 version?
