I need to cross compile using Visual 2005 in Windows 10 to deploy in a Windows NT. I compiled (in WIN10) using the MT Run-Time library and I could execute some applications in windows NT correctly, but now I need to use the MD, instead of the MT. Could I say to the compiler which MD version link against to? using some Macro like WIN32_WINNT or similar?

Thanks!!

  • not in vs 2005, it can only use the 2005 runtime, why do you want to use a different version? – Alan Birtles Dec 04 '19 at 19:41
  • Because the target (Win NT) system has an older runtime than the host used to compile (Win 10) – Santi J Fry Dec 05 '19 at 07:47
  • yeah but vs 2005 is pretty unlikely to produce code for an OS that was released 10 years after it was. Have you tried running your code on NT? – Alan Birtles Dec 05 '19 at 07:50
  • though it doesn't look like vs 2005 supports nt: https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/2661358/minimum-service-pack-levels-for-microsoft-vc-redistributable-packages – Alan Birtles Dec 05 '19 at 07:52
  • this states static linking is the only option: http://www.malsmith.net/blog/visual-c-visual-history/ – Alan Birtles Dec 05 '19 at 07:56
  • Yeah, I tried and I can execute code but using the Static Run Time Library, but due to the dependencies of the project I cannot use the Static version anymore. – Santi J Fry Dec 05 '19 at 10:00
  • You'll need to change your dependencies to use the static runtime or stop supporting an OS Microsoft stopped supporting 15 years ago – Alan Birtles Dec 05 '19 at 10:47
