LPub3D 2.0 Released

[Trevor Sandy]

I have repackaged the distributions to deploy the required Qt MSVC plugins and automatically detect and install the MS VC++ runtime dependencies.

Just installed LPub3D-2.0.4.737.2_20160702 to have a first look around for the upcoming AIOI. Win10 reports the following .dll missing:

VCRUNTIME140.dll
MSVCP140.dll

BTW: How do I divide a large BOM over several pages. Say you'll list the BOM for the Cafe Corner?

I can think of only one scenario where you can experience this behavior which is if you select the MSVC 'portable' distribution - the one that does not have MinGW in the name :-) - unzip the archive, and proceed directly to launch the LPub3D executable. 

Under this approach you would have missed the prerequisite of installing the Visual Studio 2015 runtime. If you look in the installation root directory, you will see vc_redist.x86[64].exe. It is necessary to manually install the contents of this package (or have a previous installation) before running LPub3D from a portable distribution.

With the NSIS installer-packaged distribution, the installer will automatically look in your System32 directory for vcruntime140.dll. If it is not found, the installer will proceed to install vc_redist.x86[64].exe. You can see the details of this activity if you select to show details during the install files dialog when the installer is running.

I have updated sourceForge with the source for version 2.0.4. You can look under tools/Win-setup to find '00 BuildLPub3D00AndCreateDistNoPack.bat' and 'LPub3DNoPack.nsi'. These are the scripts used to package all distributions of LPub3D and should help you with your AIOI packaging - particularly the latter script.

Let me know if this information resolves your issue.

To divide a bom, simply right click the BOM and select 'Split Bill of Materials' from the context menu. See image.
