So, I've started to program in the D language, and I found a SFML binding for the language, called DSFML. But, there's a problem. The compiled executables won't run on the computer that I develop on. They run on the computer that I'm on ATM. In the thread of above, I posted a debug log of 2 programs. What happens is that a window quickly opens, and closes right away, and what should happen is either pong or some test program should come up. But, the programs that didn't involve opening Windows worked okay, so it might have something to do with that.
In the log, the person who worked on the D binding for SFML said msvcr71.dll didn't load, so I'm pretty sure it's the computer.
Anyone have any idea why it won't work on that computer?
Both are on Windows XP, and I tried installing SP3 since some files might have been the problem, but no.
Help!

Huh?
Are you being serious or not, I can't tell on the internet. =|

Sounds like whoever compiled that program didn't do it right (did they do a release compile?).
To fix, try getting the DLL and stick it into System32.

I compiled it from the samples, so the code should be fine.
It works fine on the computer I'm using now. :\
And I'm pretty sure the dll is there, I did a search for it and it was in the System32 folder.
I didn't do any special flags, I guess I could try adding -release to the release flags. (Or did you mean the compile shouldn't be a release compile?)

You're probably compiling it in debug mode.  Change it to release mode instead.
In VS2005, it looks like this.


I'm not sure if that's your issue, by try it anyway.

No.

I'm compiling using the command line, not using an IDE, so I know I'm not compiling in debug mode.
And I just tried it on another computer, and it didn't work either.
2 of the executables that don't work can be found here:

Inside are 2 test programs I compiled.
