I am trying to release a console program I made, and when I tried on another computer it did not work, It told me I needed to download a .dll, I downloaded it, and it gave me some other error.

So what am I missing, What do I have to include with the program for it to work...

Thank you.

You need to link the C++ library statically.
How to do that depends on your compiler, Google will help you there. I'm assuming VC++, since MinGW automatically links it statically.

I do not understand, basically all your saying is it depends on my compiler, I tried using google. Haven't found anything useful on there.

So... Can someone please help..

So when you say link the c++ library statically all I read is: THIS IS GOING OVER MY HEAD...

Thanks for the post though. Hope to get a reply. =)

Then you didn't search properly.
How about stating what compiler you're using?
