iirc, the suggestion from msft is to always include the dll in your lib dir, NOT install it on the base system with the redist.

Is it possible to link against msvcrt.dll instead of compiler specific ones (e.g. msvcrt90.dll)?

Maybe, but I have not seen an easy way to do this with later compilers, and the old ones are generally pretty broken.  I doubt it would compile at all.

I see. I've read several stories about good and bad results linking against msvcrt.dll. Some big players do that, though (like mozilla - checked xulrunner).

In case we don't use any console stuff, is there a way to link without msvcrt at all?

Not sure the connection between console and msvcrt.dll.  We need a runtime regardless unless we somehow write c code that uses no functions from the c runtime.

Why is it an issue to depend on msvcrt90.dll?

It is a minor thing. For a FS based softphone client you have to handle installation of these dll files too. Right now using vcredist_x86.exe seems to be the right way, but in such a case windows will have another package the user might wonder how it get there - or can delete later when does not know why is it there. This is just from maximalistic point of view :)

Sure the only requirement is the 2008 CRuntime support. No files or registry settings needed for basic operation.

Can Freeswitch be installed simply by zipping up the folder and unzipping it to the destination?

Does it require some DLLs to be installed in the Windows system folder and some registry entries as well?
