VC Runtime v9.0.30729.5677

I need to include v9.0.30729.5677 of the Microsoft VC Runtime (32-bit) with my installer. Has this runtime package been integrated with InstallAware yet?

With my current InstallAware installation, I see the following older VC 9 runtime versions:
vc9bin (v9.0.21022.8 )
vc9securebin_x86 (v9.0.21022.218)
vc91bin (v9.0.30729.1)
vc9sp1securebin_x86 (v9.0.30729.4148)

Thanks,
- Dave L.

Hi Dave,

It has not, however it would be rather simple to create one, basing off an already existing VC runtime package.

Thanks for the info. I've actually done as you suggested in the past. It seems with the latest runtime packages, however, that there is some problem in launching the runtime's installer MSI using the "Install MSI Setup" plug-in. I suspect there are additional parameters needed (i.e. in the "Action String").

Anyway, I might change my installer to just launch the vcredist_x86.exe. I think that means that I'll lose the integrated progress bar and won't get any meaningful return code, but at least it should do what I want. ;)
