Will clients need anything to run my EXEs?
« on: March 29, 2013, 01:03:46 pm »
If I make a program that uses SFML is there any chance it won't run because they don't have something installed? i.e. They won't need .NET, or OpenGL, etc.?

This all depends on the platform you're talking about and how you link the dependencies.
So you should provide more information.

If you use C++ & SFML there's no need for the .NET framework.

I'm using Visual Studio to write C++. I'm not really sure what .NET is, all I know is I don't want it. I'm not sure if VS automatically adds it to C++ exes or not.

Something you don't have to care about if you do C++. It's a language family (C#, Visual Basic.Net, ASP.Net, ...) with its big framework.
