Actually FIXED!!!
So a friend alerted me to the fact that users shouldn’t have to require the Visual C++ redist installed if I have the runtime flags (MT/MD etc.) set correctly.
Seems the Projucer blank plugin defaults to end-users requiring Visual C++ redist.
So…
In Projucer project Config tab
- Visual Studio > both Debug/Release > Runtime Library
- Set to ‘Use static runtime’
Now the end-user will not need the Visual C++ redist installed to use your plugin. More detailed info in this thread…
JUCE team: Could we get a info tooltip on the Runtime Library field explaining this in the Projucer???
I lost 2 long days to this and I’m sure many others will do the same!
Thanks all.
