Building and Deploying an Update Package with the Visual Studio Runtime Library Feature

After creating the update package, you will need to build and deploy the package. To build and deploy an update package with the VS2013 runtime library feature:

1. Highlight your package and select Row and Define Build.

2. On the Package Build Definition Director, click Next to begin the build definition process.

3. On the Package Build Revisions form, ensure that the Build Location Client check box is checked and click Next.

4. On the Build Features tab, select the Build Feature INFs option.

5. On the Package Build Revisions form, click End to complete the build definition process.

6. On the Work with Package Build Definition form, select Row and Active/Inactive to activate the package build definition.

7. Select Row and Submit Build to build the package.

8. On the Report Output Destination form, select On Screen and click OK.

9. Once the package build has completed, review the R9622C PDF report file to verify that the build completed successfully.

   The successful package build with the included package feature results in the creation of a feature-specific INF file.

10. After building the package, the appropriate person must approve it for client deployment.

    Afterwards, both the update and associated parent package will automatically include the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime libraries as part of the client installation process.

    Since this feature was configured to install in Quiet Mode (/Q), it does not require any user intervention. If the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime libraries are already installed on the machine, the feature-specific installer will exit.
